Let’s talk about deGoogling Android this week, since it’s a common topic of interest around here to talk about GrapheneOS and CalyxOS.
I feel like Google services has been lacking for the better part of a decade to the degree that I am reluctant to rely on most Google services nowadays. However, I don’t think I have the effort to actively remove all traces of Google from my phone, as the cost of bootloader unlock and rooting is a bit too much for me.
So, I would like to hear what your deGoogling experiences, since I’m unlikely to do it myself.
Past Discussions
I installed LineageOS and F-Droid. No google apps services. Very easy to use.
On an loder phone that I struggeled to unlock the bootloader on, I went a head and uninstalled all that I could, then disable the reste. Cut internet and autostart etc, on settings apps (Xiaomi phone).Then used apps from f-droid.
Traditionnaly I always install custom mobile operating systems like paranoid android or LineageOS and just not use gapps.
