  Don’t downgrade to Windows 11, update to Linux

  Thats because they treat it like a toy, not a tool.

  I am completely against addictions, including those like algorithm social media. I am also against people who dont understand tech blaming it instead of blaming the real problem. If we just took a second to understand it we would understand how to use it responsibly.

  Fucking conservatives in my opinion. Its not a bad way of spending time, its different. It has a different set of advantages and disadvantages. If you’re too stupid to understand it, just stay away from it. But don’t ruin it for the open minded people who are open to new ideas.

  Kids will grow up around the idea that there is no freedom and their superiors (e.i. the corrupt companies) have to decide their rights.

  I am opposed to the way its being used but also opposed to banning it. I think schools should teach how to use it responsibly, not lock people into the Google environment.

  Like other people have suggested, maybe get a second phone (one of those really cheap ones with play Services) and use that for that stuff, and keep your main personal phone google-free.

  I think Linux phones will gain some real traction within five years. Last I heard, KDE is putting great effort into making apps for Plasma Mobile

  Yes, banking apps, streaming apps, even some shopping apps. This has been a problem for a long time. Sometimes its for “security” reasons and sometimes its simply because the app uses Play Service APIs. Another issue on de-googled systems is push notifications, though that is often fixed through alternates like Unified Push

  True…. I heard GrapheneOS is having trouble porting to the Pixel 10

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google's shocking developer decree struggles to justify the urgent threat to F-Droid⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Google’s developer verification will only run on mainstream Android with play services. It’s not supposed won’t be running in standard AOSP so the easiest solution would be to switch to a custom ROM like GrapheneOS.
