This one is definitely the hardest and is the least mature. Have you managed to get off Google on your phone?

I'm using GrapheneOS (Degoogle'd android) on a Pixel 6a. The irony isn't lost on me that I had to buy google to get off google.

I had tried Pinephone and Plasma mobile, but it still needs more work and I needed a phone sooner as my old one was failing.

How about you? Did you manage to get away from Google?

/e/OS it is degoogled but most of the "Google" applications have been replacedby great opensource alternatives or adapted. The app store still allows us to install apps from the playstore but anonymously.

I back this up. I've been using it for about 2 years. works like a charm, most default apps are very efficient and I like how the play store rate the app according to their level of privacy.
