Wanted to get a new phone since my S20 is starting to show its age. And with all the enshitification of Android lately I thought it’d be good to try a different phone OS.

However, I don’t really want to buy a Google Pixel so GrapheneOS is a no go. I was really interested in the Fold 7 but it seems that will not be possible to get without Android. Thought DivestOS was good but it looks like support ended in 2024.

What other phone OS are people using?

      More power to you! I enjoy browsing videos and reading webcomics too much to go back to a flip phone though. Don’t go on social media much so if I go deeper down the rabbit hole, a flip phone may bot be out of the question. It would also be a great alternative for a work phone

              I tried to be nice and deflect your comment with a joke but it seems you just want to be needlessly mean.

              I work from home and don’t go out much due to my limited mobility. And I use my phone to watch videos and read when in bed because a laptop would be to cumbersome to use. I do have a tablet as well but even that gets too heavy to hold for long periods of time.

              When I do occasionally go out, I only use my phone for directions, to listen to a podcast since the noise of traffic and crowded areas is overstimulating, or you know, as a phone to make calls/texts. So no, I do not use my phone as a pacifier in public, you horse’s ass.
