    I think it’s ironic that the alternatives to Android (graphene, calyx) only fully work on Google phones.

        Used phones: exist

        Users who constantly repost this same comment: “doesn’t look like anything to me.”

          Used pixel actually limit a lot the choice. I’ve not dived into de-googled phone yet but from what I understood postmarketOS seems like the used/old phone OS

      Same reason it continually sucks to get a working Linux build on an apple laptop or desktop.

      As bad as Google is, they’re lightyears ahead of Apple in terms of protecting their products in a walled garden.
