    This man is a lyer. /e/ os is not degoogled but tgey keep saying it. They ignore critique regarding their very slow updates. They introduced OpenAI but labeled it as a Murena feature, so that user could think, it is a valid service but data is sent to USA. Critique was ignored and labeled as personal harrasment. Wtf.

    Yes, /e/ has much less Google integrated but their service, their communication, their promissises and their security is a laugh.

    After his last response to the AI integration, I realized that he is not willing to accept valid critique and they will go on what we usually call ‘enshitification’

    Nice read.

    The entire smartphone ecosystem is designed to be used almost exclusively through Google or iOS services: government apps, banking apps, prepaid health-insurance apps, and countless other examples. Even though a phone is a handheld computer, it’s far from being a computer in the sense of giving users real control over the software they run.

    That’s for me one of the biggest problem.

    DeGoogling Android is no longer sufficient. Google has made it abundantly clear that the openness of Android itself is over.
