Considering Google and Apple both donate to Trump, we really need an alternative: Linux mobile OS. A linux OS that can be installed on a range of phones, from cheap to more expensiove. Just buy the phone and install the OS, as you do on PCs.
Good linux mobile OSs already exist, but phones’ hardware is still proprietary and messed up, so it is very difficult to provide a good hardware support for those mobile OSs
Yes, the bottleneck isn’t software, it’s hardware. We need phones with unlocked bootloaders
Good is used looy here.
I honestly didn’t realize how the fdroid deployment worked, and now I’m gonna be way less skeptical of apps I see there.
I do not go to Google play until apps on f-droid prove inadequate for my usage.

Syncthing is no longer an option on Android?

I’m using syncthing-fork.
I’m using Syncthing-Fork on Android and Syncthing on Linux. Works very well.
Can one just remove GSF and bypass this? Or is it something going to be built into Android going forward? Genuinely curious.
I am not on Android now, but…
…Can folks not just dual-boot?
Like, keep a stock partition to make Play Store apps happy, and a “main” GraphemeOS boot option or whatever.
To my knowledge no. Theres also the issue of hardware. For example, I stupidly gave samsung another chance about 3 or so years ago, and you basically cannot put another OS on their devices without bricking them.
