I’ll probably go with one of the other roms on an older phone or possibly one of the Linux phones. It won’t be exactly what I want, but it’ll be better than their walled garden bullshit. That’s precisely why I left Apple way back when.
LineageOS and GrapheneOS could just be like “well, go on, then.”
There’s a market for everything and the FOSS and maker markets would eat up an open Android phone, even if the only apps you could install were community-created.
The moment I don’t get to run my own stuff and F-Droid, I’ll be switching off smartphones.

Or we just… ignore them?

Those would be great if they worked on cheap handsets. TracFone users should have better security too
Dumbphone with tethering
A mini laptop/cyberdeck
A modern mp3 player
A small, modern point and click camera
hey gramps, where’d you get that gear, 2007?
It’s not a cyberdeck unless I have trodes and a halo, chummer. But some kind of netbook would be great.
I had an Asus Eee PC and I fuckin’ loved it. Is there anyone still making a functional laptop in that form factor anymore?
I don’t know, but if you find one, let me know. Because if Asus made a new one under their ROG branding, I think I’d be willing to pay the extra cost.
Damn I’m gonna need cargo pants to carry all this
