    Instead of: “Android.”

    Say: "An open source Android (AOSP)-based operating system such as LineageOS for microG or other similar FOSS projects that fully circumvent Google Play Services."

    You know, like a normal person.

      I do say Lineage, but not MicroG, I’ve found that nothing that used it still works after the Verified Device API was implemented and everyone dropped support for older Android versions.

      I was using an old Note 8, with stock Android on it, just for the stuff like banking apps and my coffee discount but the very last of them “updated” to break last week so ALL the Evil Empire is for the bin.
