    Strictly speaking, that is a solution. Fair point though, I forgot it had limited support. Still, there are other alternative OS out there you could look for.

    edit: I guess fuck me for having a fallible human memory, sorry everyone i learned my lesson i’ll never mention alternative os ever again. also how is the “foss” part being ignored. fdroid? alternative stores? degoogle? hello?

    my bad, thought i was on lemmy.

      Yeah, your right. A non-booting phone won’t have this problem, so we may as well just flash graphene and problem solved. Why didn’t I think of that…

        they hadn’t said what kind of phone they had before I mentioned it, and i already said I forgot only pixel was supported atm. you’re taking me in bad faith, and i dont appreciate it.

      Why did you get downvoted so hard lmao? GrapheneOS doesn’t support that many phones but LineageOS has support for many phones, though unfortunately the latest Samsung phones have their bootloaders locked I believe so nothing can be done about the OS.

        I didn’t have “Still, there are other alternative OS out there you could look for.” in the initial draft but even then, 6/23 is a fuckin ratio for “get a different os or get rid of google”
