How’s it so far? Based on your experience, do you feel it gave you more benefits than a regular Pixel can give?

For someone who’s only using apps from Fdroid and not signing in to Playstore, do you think it’s worth the change?

P.S. I found GOS community in Lemmy but they seem to have disabled posting.

    if Play Store and Services are system apps on your phone, Google still knows literally everything you do on that device.

    If you just use F-Droid and other sources, it’s all the easier to switch without any downside.

      Google Play Services and whatnot on GOS think they’re system apps. In a special sandbox setup specifically for it by GOS devs. Which can be uninstalled as a whole, just like any other app.
