🚨 Google is killing Android freedom.
Starting 2027, unverified apps can’t be side-loaded.
➡️ F-Droid harder to install
➡️ Custom APKs blocked
➡️ Google decides what runs on YOUR phone
Google’s Android is becoming Apple: Your device, their rules.
It’s time to switch to open alternatives: Graphene, Calyx, Lineage. ✊

Still, y'know, best of all worlds:
Google provides the justification for many leading manufacturers to produce a variety of devices.
Then the best of those devices get support from third party OS's.
I mean yes, of course Google sucks the big sausage. But Asus and Lenovo and Samsung etc. wouldn't be making all this great hardware for reasonable prices if Google weren't out there pushing Android. And we all benefit when we install LineageOS and similar on those devices.
