because many People who loves privacy

almost 12 of us ... i jest but seriously, everyone using Apple and >90% of Android users don't care. Google knows this and they just bang on about this being best for Android users to ameliorate any concerns around governance issues.

Even many supposed staunch, so called privacy advocates, will complain they can't change because banking or some such, so they stick with the status quo as every minor inconvenience is seen as an insurmountable wall.

So i expect some bloviating initially and then acceptance. In 5 years, no shits given (headphone jack, expandable storage saw the same sort of thing)

tl;dr press x for doubt (x)

Well, since I never took time to master phone magic, now they are going to give me a push. Thanks, I guess

Motorola will release a phone with GrapheneOS in 2027, it would be a good pick.

I think you're overestimating the de-Google community.
I'd be astonished if there was 10 million of us. Compared to a few Billion normies, we're a rounding error in their accounting.

Don't forget about the new automatic Google play services check that app developers can enable with a single click on build. That automatically blocks the app from working on any degoogled ROM

I was doing Android development recently and apparently the official SDK builds needed to build the app aren't FOSS, and actually FOSS versions are difficult to get. I still can't wait until Linux phones are a thing, Android is such a shitshow nowadays and even GrapheneOS is still at the mercy of Google's ecosystem. (also still no aarch64-linux support for the build tools either)

So, did I understood correctly that just getting pixel with GrapheneOS is way out?

I tried to open up an issue (and did a PR) suggesting a developer strike as a tactic (IE open source devs adding their names to a list to promise to remove our apps from google play if developer ID goes through) on the KeepAndroidOpen repo. As a dev whose made many android apps and have them on both f-droid and google play, I thought this would mean something.

The maintainers of that repo have been ignoring me to death since April. I was told by the maintainer that the project was "leaderless", but in reality it seems they're very opposed to a developer strike, otherwise my PR would've gotten more attention.
