GrapheneOS does look interesting. Though the Android Auto, that I use as the car satnav (with OSMAnd+), looks like it might be even more a pain to setup...
I can't get over what a techo-political dystopia is, without a lot of faff. We need some law here, forcing standardized open interfaces! (And copyright trolling DRM pushing dark forces will fight that, because of media playing)
Shouldn't be a problem, GOS has sandboxes play services
Also, at the same time, there's an alternative app for google auto on fdroid
Wait what? What's that? I've not seen it!
I can't find the one from fdroid, they probably don't have keywords i'm looking for
But there's https://github.com/lamemakes/pilot-drive
Oh I found the open source Android Auto stuff for GNU/Linux. Though not use any of the GNU/Linux phones make use of it. It looks better to setup, and develop on, but I very much doubt it would make life easier. Not unless you can seamless run Android apps in a box and them not know.
