Fuck off. This is my last android phone
What would you get instead? I think if Google actually follows through with this, I'll switch to LineageOS, which is still Android. Obviously, iOS is much worse on this front.
Honestly, I don't know. I'll find something. Let the recommendations begin!
There's no alternative that won't have major limitations. I predict it'll just be more like going back to the days of jailbreaking to install unsigned apps. Unfortunately AOSP is already pretty much unusable without Google services installed for the vast majority of apps.
I'll thank you to not rain and piss facts on my moody parade. Just leave an irrationally cranky old man his delusions. Lol
A phone that isn't smart, probably
I've already gone to an analog pocket watch. Might as well go that route
Maybe Sailfishos, but it isn't open source and has practically no app support outside of android.
