Switching platforms annually also is a) worthless, because if adopted at large scale, it’s a wash…. And b) Quite a bit of work mentally readjusting annually.
Yea, among other things, I’m not going through the process of migration just to prove a point. Too much work for uncertain returns, and on top of that I’ll end up hating my phone. Why’d I do that?
I run Calyx and everything works for me except for Google pay. Google’s device validation is required for that, and since Google can’t separate the spying from security it’s a no go.
My bank and Google maps works even. In fact you can download any app from Google Play itself via Aurora store.
Ok that’s fucking stupid.
The thought process is…. Convoluted, at best.

I’m running a Google Pixel + a popular open source android ROM. No Google.
When will I change my phone? When my Pixel dies and I buy another pixel to install an open source android ROM without Google.
