Hello
I’m being pushed into the market by google/android to acquire a new phone due to it slowing down. I’m sick of this marketing tactic and the clutter of preinstalled apps and junk software.
What phone and operating system could I get that could allow me to use for a long period of time and out of reach from subversive tactics from giant corporations?
I’m basically a farmer and so know nothing about coding and not too technologically oriented but would really like to break away from the capitalist/hyperconsumerist phone craze. Thank you.
Why include it as a default though? If they simply dropped a recommendation, or asked to install it letting you know it’s proprietary, sure people might still complain but it won’t be seen as nearly as serious a violation of FLOSS principles.
