I've grown increasingly hateful towards both my Android and iOS devices over the last decade. The platforms themselves are increasingly user-hostile, and their appstores are crammed full of shitty, privacy-invading, telemetry-hoovering, dopamine-triggering, ad-filled, lipstick-covered apps that are often garbage compared to the pioneering days of mobile. I miss the days of my old Palm Pilot.

Is anyone working on fixing this? We can do so much better.

I mean, just get a rootable phone and roll your own RoM. If you can type stuff in a terminal, its not that hard to do.

You can pretty much disable all google services. Just a fair warning though, the experience is quite degraded.
