I'm not buying a Pixel because I'm not giving Google any money. I'm in the US so the other OSs will not work for me. I just need this crap off my phone. I can't uninstall Youtube, and it came with Facebook. It's just infuriating. Can I just root it and connect it to my Linux laptop and just force uninstalls or something without bricking the device?

Any help appreciated!

I don't know man, to me it seems a path of least resistance to give Google the money for the phone, and then immediately turn off the fauct by installing Graphene.

I do not miss the days of having to root phones just to try to make them less anti-user.
