I assume everyone on Lemmy uses GrapheneOS on a Pixel 7 or LineageOS flashed onto a LG Tribute with zero Google apps, and everything backed up via nextcloud running on a headless Debian Raspberry Pie?

I’m just a scrub using stock Android. Am I the only one?

    I need an SD slot and headphone jack so I’m on a Motorola g 25. I got it a couple months ago. It’s pretty good so far. I chad an LG v20 prior to that.

    I have an old Realme GT NEO 3 with the stock ROM. There was no LineageOS ROM for it when I got it but there’s been one for two years now, so I may give it a try eventually.

    The camera is not good but apart from that, it works. I have Google apps installed on this one and use mainly Gmail and Maps. Maps is shitty but I also use openstreetmaps on the web through Firefox. I don’t have the YouTube app and watch videos in Firefox, with uBlock Origin, Sponsor Block and Video Background Play Fix. I tend to use the websites, or FOSS apps if possible through F-Droid. No weather app, I just go on the website with ads blocked. But I don’t mind paying for some apps that I use if they are useful and don’t have ads. Ads are the devil.

    And my backups are simple, using FolderSync connecting via SSH on my headless Orange Pi.

    Still have an iPhone 12 mini. Will upgrade to like the iPhone 18 pro or something. I’m waiting until this stops getting software updates first.

    Realme GT 7 Pro

    I’ve been quite happy with it, the package price is great while the software is much less neutered than the Xiaomis I’ve used before. Fast processor, gargantuan battery and the fast charging up to 120W without heating up the phone much is insane.

    Company buys me a pimped up iPhone every two years. I’m due for an upgrade this fall again.

    Can’t be arsed to buy a separate one, would buy a GrapheneOS supported one if that didn’t involve giving money to Google

    S24 FE. I hate all the recent changes Samsung has been doing but this phone should last me until 2030 at least, probably more. I’m also the only person on Lemmy who likes OneUI, and I’m OK with that now that all alternative launchers are enshittifying.

    By the time I need to replace it, the market will probably be in an entirely different place and maybe even some Linux versions could be more viable.

    I use Immich, bitwarden, mega, and Tuta. Which covers the backup of everything.
