From under my tin foil hat: I know it probably isn't perfect, but I'm running Cyanogenmod, without Google's location services, browsing with Opera labs because it supports the Ghostery extension that blocks trackers while browsing and is easy to change the search provider to DuckDuckGo (though the default is always Google for some reason), only using Google maps as a fallback after OsmAnd offline maps and MapQuest for online apps. I do miss Google maps, and have used it every now and again, and the GPS in my old Samsung Galaxy S may as well be nonexistent, so not using location services sucks. Opera renders some popular websites poorly (quite possibly not their fault) but it is good at other things. I also still rely on Google Play (fdroid doesn't have enough stuff, and I don't mind paying for some stuff) but alternatives like Amazon are probably just as bad. Overall its not so bad. One day I'll try to use my phone without any of my Google accounts and see how I go. |
