OMFG, hanging in an elevator ceiling and get a spam call on Google Meet! I don't even use that, why is it on my phone?!? @GrapheneOS it's very sad I can't install your distro on my Nothing phone.
Anyone know an alternative OS I can throw on this device to enable me to uninstall BS Google applications that I don't need (IE: all of them)?

@cdp1337@social.bitsnbytes.dev You can disable it which is equivalent to uninstalling it. Don't disable any core OS components but you can disable the user-facing Google apps.

@cdp1337@social.bitsnbytes.dev I know nothing :) about nothing phone (I have a Fairphone). But the other top Android alternatives are: Lineage OS iodé @iode@mastodon.online /e/ OS Calyx (if you don't mind waiting for their return, they have an Android 16 test build now, so I expect within a few months) YMMV for compatibility with various phone brands. My pick right now would be /e/ OS, but I'm waiting for the new Calyx.
