Looking forward to the day I have the cash for Fairphone or some other alt to Android/iOS
Oh I didn't know about fair phone. Thank you for making me aware of this project.
Do your own research but I've heard they've gotten better.
Very welcome, my friend.
Be aware that their hardware has cross gen problems and their support is very bad. /e/os has implemented tracking id into their update service. They are calling cleanapk, they update OS and Webview extremly slow resulting in a very insecure OS.
I've recently got monthly updates. The last one from 2024-01-09 containing Android security patches until 12/2023.
@torbjoern @Undertaker 💡migrate to #grapheneos on a #degoogled #pixel and enjoy lightning fast ⚡ OS updates for #android14 whilst using an excellent piece of mobile hardware without #tracking
Yeah, well, I'm not gonna give up my potentially long-living #Fairphone (due to excellent repairability) for a Pixel crafted from rare-earth minerals of dubious origin, just because you're #shilling it.
I can recommend flashing /e/OS to de-google the Fairphone. Running smoothly on my FP3 since 2021.
