Question: My mom wants to use a FOSS operating system on her phone unrelated to Google because she is mad about events of late. Because I'm making Android apps, I don't want to do this on my phone, but does anyone know of any viable Linux based alternatives to Android on mobile?
So far I know about Plasma Mobile and Ubuntu Touch, but I'm not well versed on either, perhaps someone else could point me in the right direction?
@waltznr your donot need to use linux.
Your can use de-googled androids like graphene os or calyx os. They are androids but no google there so no privacy risk. Linux is good but their development and community is not great. So it should be better to use android for security and privacy, just kick out google and you are done. Some are better than ios also.
@thunderdragon900 I see, yeah the Linux OS's that were built from scratch, while they are nice projects they don't look nearly as advanced as Android-based operating systems. Since its Android based and since I'm not using any of Google's services (except I'm using their programming language, Flutter) my apps should be runnable it seems. That's honestly ideal, thank you!
