Linux-based phone still ‘runs 99% of Android apps’ so you can do more with it, if you wish.

    A custom rom is great and the best path for the techie users. For the general public, you can still disable non needed invasive apps. For minimalist usage aimed at reducing overall phone usage, that’s mostly enough. There’s also a launcher called baldphone available on fdroid that turns any android phone in a minimalist phone, aimed at the elderly, but still nice for any minimalism enthusiast. It requires some tech skill to install though.

      For the longest time I am using a minimalist desktop too (i mean a launcher or default home app), called Unlauncher.
