Might be an unpopular opinion but, this sounds really exciting to me. I hate fidgeting with my phone and always have been super interested in a true AI type assistant type thing.

It’s a shame no one should ever trust this, regardless of what company makes it.

Oh what the world could be.

Try duckai (by duckduckgo) its not ideal but its something. It acts as a middleman between you and a few llms and they have agreements that ur queries aren’t used for training+metadata is removed by ddg before it reaches the llm I believed

Glad I use GrapheneOS and don’t use any Google apps or services anymore it’s amazing how I no longer get spam calls and texts since the switch.

Don’t you have issues with banking apps then? It’s the one thing holding me back from switching, but I haven’t really done a deep dive in it.

Its a common misconception that banking apps don’t work on grapheneOS.

In some cases there is a feature call “expliot protection compatibility mode” that you have to enable, but the OS does it automatically for most banking apps.

De-googling is not enough, there must be nothing to de-Google from the start.

That’s one approach but far more limited than just using a Google-free Android build like Lineage.

Same but I think it will soon not be enough. I still cant believe it’s now so difficult to not be a google product, this is a digital nightmare built by decades of unregulated capitalism. Kiss my ass GAFAM.

I mean, nothing is forcing anyone to use any specific product, and there are certainly smartphones with neither Android or iOS.

Personally, at some point I will switch from iPhone to an Android device that can work with something independent like /e/ or one of the other decent ones.
