Nah, it couldn't be.
Google would never do anything just to stifle competition. /s
Faaaaark, I hate how much this speaks to me
Indeed it has, thank you Binzy_Boi! Feel free to remove yourself from the moderator role or from the community if you so wish. Though I would welcome your staying behind for a bit even though, as you've said, your identity has evolved.
And on an unrelated note: Somehow it seems like I can't react to your comments with an emoji. Just above, I was able to react to Sunshine's comment without an issue 🤔
Not sure how to interpret "jacked" in this context. Is it good or bad? 🤔
I think you can only simplify things so much without making the entire thing pointless. As others have already said, install GrapheneOS yourself — it's almost as easy as making an online purchase. And remember the phone is inherently a tracking device no matter what — especially if the cellular/radio stack is active.
I don't think there's any more shortcuts that can be taken if security and protection from surveillance are actually important.
Huh...I don't seem to be able to react with an emoji for some reason. Putting it here as a comment:

My struggle is to not get bitter/angry at these situations. I have to keep reminding myself that there are about a billion other ways in which I am ignorant of things that are equally important. And that just a few years ago, I too, was completely on the big tech bandwagon (but only reluctantly so).
Your pain is so very relatable, pal 😢
I'd be happy to step up if no one else is interested!
