I always found it weird that the OS that attempts to limit the impact of Google’s severe privacy issues mostly only runs on hardware by Google.
Not only weird, but it’s beyond rich. There’s no way on God’s green Earth I’m giving money to Google to buy hardware that allows me to escape Google’s corporate surveillance machine. That’s just too much irony for me.
My deGoogled cellphone therefore is a FairPhone running CalyxOS.
CalyxOS is a mighty fine AOSP distribution, in case you wonder. Very pro, very polished, and I’ve never had a problem with it.
The Pixels (and the Nexus before them) are very hackable compared to most other phones. They’re a good platform for this sort of thing, and why not use it? If you have alternatives, get portin’.
Shit. All google needs to do is F GOS and game over for pixel phones and GOS. GOS really needs a backup manufacturer that maybe can achieve GOS goals.

As soon as Google wants to, you kind of just lose.

Their modems are crap. The primary function of a phone is to access cellular signal. No thanks.
