Let's talk about deGoogling Android this week, since it's a common topic of interest around here to talk about GrapheneOS and CalyxOS.

I feel like Google services has been lacking for the better part of a decade to the degree that I am reluctant to rely on most Google services nowadays. However, I don't think I have the effort to actively remove all traces of Google from my phone, as the cost of bootloader unlock and rooting is a bit too much for me.

So, I would like to hear what your deGoogling experiences, since I'm unlikely to do it myself.

Ha sounds good I'll clean up the scripts as much as I can this weekend and make the repo public. I'll update this post when it's done.

Edit: maybe next week, forgot it's Christmas!

I just started cleaning things up when I saw this. Probably going to try and make a build without microg and using sandboxed play services now: https://grapheneos.org/releases#2023123000
