My next personal phone will be a Linux phone. Fuck this noise.
I’ve pre-ordered the Click Communicator for my next work phone, and I don’t plan to use anything on it aside from Microsoft 365’s shitty apps that I need for work.
On my personal device, I’m happy to drop all apps on my phone aside from calling, SMS/MMS, and maps/GPS. Everything else I can do with web apps or Linux desktop apps (ebooks with TTS are essential for me), if needed. I’m so tired of Google’s (and Microsoft’s… and Apple’s) bullshit.
I’m glad to hear this won’t be deployed globally until 2027; that gives a bit more time for Linux phones to improve. I just need my Pixel 7a to limp along for another ~7 months, then I’m gone forever, I hope!
I find the app.s on Linux are often nicer, in many cases; like, I read more ebooks with Foliate than I ever did when I was using Android. It’s been really nice; even just the familiarity of things working like you’re used to them working on your desktop/laptop makes the whole experience just…nicer.

Fuck what Android has become.
