If you're worried about tracking, isn't Google's OS already a non-starter?

- brucethemoose2 3y agoLineageOS and derivatives are much more reasonable. Again, its a compromise, and I dont trust it with everything.
- the_third_wave 3y agoNot if you do not include the nosy bits. Use an AOSP-derived distribution like LineageOS, do not add 'Gapps' (Google Apps), use free software 'apps' from F-Droid or something similar (including Fennec, a Firefox build minus telemetry/Pocket/...) and you're good to go. LineageOS itself has its derivatives like GrapheneOS which claim to take the idea of a leak-proof mobile OS further but since that only runs on a limited number of devices none of which I have around here I have not tested this yet.
