Da hast du volkommen recht!

hast du Vorschläge für erwerbbare Hardware? Das aktuellste war jetzt das Fairphone 4 was ich gefunden habe.

Am liebsten wäre mir natürlich HW auf der alles (Grapheneos, postmarketos, Ubuntu touch, etc) mal ausprobiert werden kann.

Pmos sieht für mich als Linux fan mit neuentdeckter Faszination noch am coolsten aus, habe aber etwas bammel mglw auf ein android zurückfallen zu müssen (#Googleless wäre mir graphene vmtl das liebste)

Thx!

I bought an additional #secondhand #Fairphone this summer, to be used by our teenager. My own phone is set up with @e_mydata for a #googleless experience, but suggesting such mostly receives #RollEyes, despite every app being available and hardly limiting what you can do with the phone. Any parents here that set their child up with a googleless phone? How did you go about this? And do you then make use of #ParentalControl, too, that I see mentioned in a recent post by /e/ foundation?
When all else fails, I retreat to music. My Friday morning coding jam which I commend to you all if it runs to your taste: #googleless https://invidious.snopyta.org/watch?v=H49tu_VoViU or #moregoogleblech https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H49tu_VoViU this is the #TrueLoves (from my old hometown of Seattle, WA, USA)

Yesterday I messed up my installation of #microg for #lineageos16 on my Xiaomi Mi A1. Had to reflash it from scratch. I'm taking this as an opportunity to try life without Play Services, not even reimplemented. #googleless to the end!

Turns out I can’t be #googleless until I find a good contact replacement.

Google only works with google play. And Mac contacts only work on Mac computers.

What’s the alternative?

In time: chrome cast doesn't seem to work on #googleless land either.

Which is, petty, but I understand. Airplay and chromecast are corporate connection cables, they are supposed to work seamless ly only inside their ecology.

The apps i cant open without google play services are:
- gmail (understandable)
- google calendar
- google maps (it opens but location doesn't work)
- pushbullet (go figure)

As soon as I find substitutes, I can go #googleless a lil bit more.

@0x3F there's an open source Android thing... You don't install app they play store, but yalp app...

Some apps depend on Google services to open so you gotta find substitutes. That's exactly the point I'm in, but frankly most apps run just fine without it. #googleless

My broter wiped my moto g clean, open source android, #googleless.

Coz it lacks play store (and play services, the surveillance thingy behind most products), I had to find apks at http://www.apkmonk.com ... kinda creepy, coz without big corps acting as curators, we have... what?

for now 4 apps can't open coz depend deeply on google play services. I'm trying to find substitutes.
