I am with you in this, but seems that some user case needs google apps for their job, at least according to the article.
In my case, there is no trace of google apps and with a couple of apps I am fine, some installed via F-Droid and others with the apk (mostly new software).
this is like the same chicken and egg story...
The same old excuse to support the evil system of fiat. I am going to use a "bitcoin visa debit" card because my grocery store is not accepting bitcoin. So in other words, I am buying bitcoin to give them back to a visa affiliated company that gave me back fiat. So I will never bother that merchant to accept bitcoin, just go and pay with visa, for him will be same as usual. Instead of pushing that merchant to accept bitcoin and never touch fiat again.
Yeah you can say "but I am saving in BTC bla bla bla" but is not the same, you are literally supporting the use of fiat.
Same with these de-googled phones... people are terrible at letting things go away. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚
