I'm not saying they will be the solution, I'm saying they will switch many people away from google. Which is better than what we have now.

Samsung is just an example. I would like any big manufacturer to fork Android and strip Google out of it.

If Samsung does it, it would be great for the deGoogle movement, and would open the floodgates for others.

I know Samsung aren't good guys, but a big company like them ditching Google will open the floodgates for others to also be able to do it

I don't think we need a Linux-Based Phone, A deGoogled Android fork would do, and it would be a familiar place for most users.

Hopefully a company like Samsung offers deGoogled options in the future.

Interesting, Yes I think users should be made aware that if they get the app from F-Droid it will work as intended.

Thankfully the full feature will still work if you get the app from F-Droid

Hopefully this will motivate more people use F-Droid
