At the very least, "AOSP without Google crap plus some other niceties."</p><p>Unfortunately, there's not a lot else. I mean, yes, there's <a href="https://polymaths.social/tags/pmos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pmOS</span></a> and many other amazing projects, but given how much people live on their phones and depend on crummy things like their banking apps to work, there's not a lot of options.</p><p>It's a bad state of affairs.</p><p>If AOSP goes by the wayside, I guess I'll get a used iPhone and use it like a dumbphone. I know some folks that do that already.</p><p>I do love my FOSS Android phone, though. It's a pretty decent middle ground between privacy and "functionality."</p><p>P.S., ARM is a horrible platform. Just look at the progress of any project that tries to get a de-blobbed OS running on bare metal on any modern phone. They never make it particularly far. Even <em>with</em> blobs.</p>
