Google is the biggest threat to open web

Degoogle, deny the parasite engagement and profit.

Degoogle by getting a Google Pixel now!

Unfortunately true ever since divestos stopped being developed. Living without a smartphone is pretty hard nowadays, but a reasonably secure and private smartphone (or anything really) is something reserved for the tech-enthusiast and you have to give money to Google.

It requires you to buy a Google Pixel Phone and its too complicated for the average user. Just look at the usage guide, I completely understand anyone who wouldn't want to deal with any of that.

Well i degoogled my Google Pixel with LineageOS and microG.

There are other options but yes pixel hardware is the best choice currently

Everyone here is aware of the irony that the most effective way to degoogle is actually to use a pixel. Its dumb but its the reality.

My next phone will be a Fairphone.

Funny thing is your sibling comment is criticising Mozilla trying to do just that :)
