What does that have to do with Android and iOS?
- fsflover 7mo agoFree software protects from malware, not walled gardens.
- fluidcruft 7mo agoIf you don't want Play Store, don't use it?
- fsflover 7mo ago"Google is slowly removing such option "for your safety", and "hackers" on this website really believe them.
- fluidcruft 7mo agoYou can still install any ROM you want. Not having Play Store has some downsides, but those trades offs should be familiar to a free software enthusiast.
- fsflover 7mo agoYou can only do this on a tiny number of devices supporting free drivers (and mainline kernel), otherwise you are tied to an ancient Linux kernel. I'm using Librem 5 btw and don't believe that Android, whose development completely depends on Google, is a viable long-term solution.
