I installed CopperheadOS on my Nexus 5X, it has been a blessing. I use OsmAnd~ maps and navigation, Startpage for search and Firefox (and Firefox Klar) as my browser.
I chose Mailbox.org as my mail/calendar/contacts provider. DAVdroid syncs my calendar with the default Copperhead OS calendar app (Etar) and the Contacts app. I use the K-9 mail app.
For YouTube I use NewPipe. It suits me a lot better than the YouTube app. I can even download video/audio for offline use.
All the apps I mentioned above are free and open source and available via the F-Droid app “store” that comes pre-installed with Copperhead.
For the first time I feel that I own my phone (not the other way around).
- staticelf 9y agoI don't want to have to change the OS on my phone to get an acceptable experience. I rather do something else with my time. But I use fastmail for mail and calendar. It works great for me. I still have like 10 years worth of data in Google Mail. So it will take some time before I can completely release that.
- distances 9y agoYou can import all your Gmail contents to Fastmail. I did this, it was very straightforward.
