    I am switching to graphene OS first chance I get, it should be this summer, damn the consequences.

    I lived most of my life without any type of cell phone let alone a smart one. I’m going back to our roots, to reject this techno fascist bullshit it’s only downhill from here on their gear.

      Switch to GrapheneOS anyway. If a website forces verification with a phone that passes strict Play Integrity with no other options, then don’t use it, or use a $30 Walmart phone if you must.

      Yes, please. The more users we have on Graphene the harder we are to ignore as a user base.

        The general crowd doesn’t seem to care about the trends that make graphene common sense and I suspect that Google would take measures if it ever did like they’re currently doing to fdroid.

          In at least some sectors, even this enshitified EU should be forced to stop Google from being anti-competitive towards graphene to some extent.

          The US is fucked but I don’t know about the rest of the world necessarily, kind of a free-for-all right now.

          They are working on their “own” phone which should alleviate a fair number of concerns with what Google might be doing to sabotage them.
