The microG Project: Free & Open Source Google Services

in technology •  7 years ago 

Cool article! I was aware of LineageOS, but microG is a new one for me. Seems pretty neat! I am of the mind that it is better to use a device that is 80% free than one that is 10% or 20% free, and the same goes for information tracking. Even if this setup is not quite perfectly free, it seems much better (and, from a privacy standpoint, safer) than a phone running a stock Android OS.

The more of these de-Googling articles I read, the more I want to do it myself!

Yes! I feel the same way. Each step moves use closer and closer.

Take a month and mentally prepare. Also over that month it is wise to find apps in fDroid that will fill a need so you don't have to worry about an APK needing some Google stuff.
