I mostly use apps installed from F-Droid, so I’m not sure how I’ll use the phone, except that it’s sometimes required as a contact method.

Well because of this, I bought a new phone and am now using GrapheneOS. I'm hoping to last at least 5 years with this, and hopefully by the time I want a new phone, grapheneos will have made a deal to have more compatible phones.

    Isn't Graphene still Android? What's stopping Google from turfing AOSP so you won't be able to sideload to them either?

    We need something completely independent from Android. Would be great if phone manufactures would make their pocket computers easier to interface like tradition PCs.
