If you don't like Google, installing a community ROM that doesn't violate your privacy would be perfectly reasonable. If you want a megacorp service but not from a megacorp, I think you won't find that anywhere.
- dathinab 6y agoBut then all banking apps stop working (including the 2FA apps "required" for using credit cards from some EU Banks; for EC cards you luckily still can use ChipTAN). Also mobile payment will stop working, normally I wouldn't care about that but currently paying without touching anything is nice. Then some apps you need for work might stop working. Not even speaking about hounded of other apps. The problem is to many app depend strongly on Google services which are not part of Android itself but shipped with every Google Android phone. And to many institutions except you to either have a Google Android phone or a iPhone. I could get away most of the time with a non Google Android phone but I will would need a second Google Android phone like 5 times a month or so.

- dathinab 6y agoThanks, I will look into it. But how do you replace FCM? I mean most apps which where not intentional distributed over alternate app stores will just try to send notification through it. Also I'm not so sure how legal it is to side load a app which is only meant to be distributed over google play.
