… Installed Graphene OS and deleted my Google account. May not seem like a big deal to some, but it was a project long in the making. Decoupling from cloud services / apps that are dependant on GAPPS is surprisingly difficult. It felt really good to delete my account in the end.
That’s your choice and I’m not going to argue with that. I don’t know when you are planning to get a new phone but I personally think that Linux phones will be much better as second phone rather than full Android replacement for a long time.
