I mostly use apps installed from F-Droid, so I’m not sure how I’ll use the phone, except that it’s sometimes required as a contact method.
Use Droidify with Shizuku
DeGoogled Custom ROMs
Is SailfishOS good?
Keep waiting for a Linux phone that actually works as a daily driver.
Get a pocket pc, probably. And only use the phone for what strictly requires it.
It’ll likely end up being more comfortable from a usability standpoint than it is now anyway.
I don’t have to do anything. I use GrapheneOS btw.
I’ve been using GrapheneOS for a while, which should minimise disruptions, but I’m also hoping the Linux phone ecosystem improves before Google locks down Android completely.
I’m still rocking Android 8/10/11, will continue to do so until I can’t run a proper web browser.
You can install with ADB, with droid-ify you can install apps with shizuku
If it really interferes, same thing as when YouTube started enshittifying: use it less and likely be better off.
OniroOS hopefully will be out by then. If not then PostMarketOS. Harmony OS is rumoured to be launching globally in 2026 but I doubt.
Build a time machine and go back in time to stop WebOS from being sold to HP.
You mean convince more people to not buy android phones. Man we used to be able to run custom kernel code on the palm pre to try and get more performance out
Well because of this, I bought a new phone and am now using GrapheneOS. I’m hoping to last at least 5 years with this, and hopefully by the time I want a new phone, grapheneos will have made a deal to have more compatible phones.
Isn’t Graphene still Android? What’s stopping Google from turfing AOSP so you won’t be able to sideload to them either?
We need something completely independent from Android. Would be great if phone manufactures would make their pocket computers easier to interface like tradition PCs.
I think (thought i am not sure) that this thing will be made with google services so just removing them should do, if not, you can just fork and modify
AOSP is still open-source. If they do, it can be forked.
Be fucked? I don’t know I already hate most phones on the market and I’m going to need to buy a new one at some point, not looking forward to it…
I’ll just keep using grapheneOS.
