Currently de-googling my life because I'm over their fucking shit. Only issue is I use android on my phone. Any advice for using a Google-free android phone (and I mean zero Google services.).

Just install LineageOS (make sure you have a phone that is supported) and don't install gapps. It's very doable. Everything you might need is on F-Droid.
If you are very autistic you can use ReplicantOS, but LineageOS is enough for me.
Buy VPS $5 a month to host Mail-in-a-box to host your own e-mail. You can also use Protonmail or whatever other meme Sup Forums recommends. As a bonus you can use it for cloud storage, contact sync, calender sync, photo storage, etc. It's really the full package.
One thing where I haven't managed to replace Google is search. So others will have to advice you there.
Anything I missed?

What's the easiest way to get everything off my gmail account to a bew provider? Gmail is the only thing holding me back from completley de-google-ing myself.

This phone but it's still in development it's better than Android.
Buy yourself on old Nexus 5 unlock the bootloader and flash plasma mobile OS to the Nexus.
Caleb Gonzalez
Go ahead, call the cops. They can't un-google you.
Ayden Evans
For search, try DuckDuckGo.
Brayden James
Did that recently myself. I actually took advice and made my own domain, running through enigmail (for encryption) in Thunderbird. If you look up "Google takeout" It will let you download everything in your mail, photos, drive, contacts and everything. then you just need to change your emails as you log in to your accounts. one week and everything was done.

Joseph Wood
Javascript is bad. I'm currently going to school for Information Security and almost any hack can be done through shit javascript.

Is it possible to remove gapps if I already installed them, or do I need to flash OS for that?
Elijah Sanders
installing a rom without gapps is a bad idea
Jordan Hill
That's why i installed pico version of them.
Jaxon Smith
Yeah, you can remove Gapps. You'll need to be rooted though.
Most custom roms come without Gapps by default and require you to flash an additional zip file with twrp or similar to get them.

Just say no to the smartphone meme. I recently got rid of mine for a basic flip phone. Best decision of my life.

If you're using your default ROM it's likely you are being spied on and mistreated.

Literally just "doesnt use cookies or JS" yet their back end is going to track all things possible esp since they started using their own crawler
