I was thinking about using graphene OS, but I’ve read some lemmy users dislike this OS due to perceived misleading advertising and the pixel 7a you’re supposed to install graphene on because it’s from google (an advertising company).
Another option would be lineage OS, but there is so much false information about this OS, namely compatible phones that simply don’t work with this OS and no support.
what works for you? I want a phone with no google, that doesn’t force me to use the manufacturer’s ecosystem and that won’t show the apps I don’t want or need (on an asus I own you cannot neither get rid nor hide bloatware)
Doesn’t it seem that this problem is caused by Google not operating the markets in the same way?
Yes, but Persen’s point still stands.
(And Pixels also have way less features here, the only advantage they give is access to GrapheneOS, great camera and AI photo editing)

Google recorder transcripts generally don’t work well in other languages, but at least the option to get a subpar transcript exists
