A closer look at e/OS: Murena's privacy-first 'deGoogled' Android alternative
> It's about not using unaudited closed source code which cannot be proven to be secure or private [..]
Degoogling is not deblobbing and Lineage or /e/ use plenty of closed source software during runtime. The top parent and DivestOS author really is deblobbing* to some degree, but forks of LineageOS that introduce measures of "degoogling" hold onto vendor firmware blobs on androids /vendor partition for functionality. Those aren't known for connecting to the Google hivemind though.
* https://github.com/Divested-Mobile/DivestOS-Build/blob/de3ba...
My interpretation of the term degoogling fits the second part of your sentence, "getting away from online services": it is user agency in what network connections can occur, so either by default or optionally users can stop any signaling coming from the device they use. They don't have that freedom with the software the device came with.

Lineage and iode both have support for Xperia XZ3, was wondering if it's on the cards for Divest?
To be fair, I had only added it a few hours before: https://github.com/Divested-Mobile/DivestOS-Build/commit/1a203ab5ad2fb3d17686eb0253aa06d2ab378b80

I installed divestoOS on my mi 9t, and this type of 32 bit warning happens for every app I open basically. Settings included. Is it a bug or soemthing? It got me a bit off guard NGL.

Finally OnePlus 9R (lemonades) is supported by LOS, in near future, can it be supported by Divest OS.
It is easier than adding others since it is effectively just another OP8 variant. No time when, but will likely happen before others listed here: https://github.com/Divested-Mobile/DivestOS-Build/issues/68

Is anyone here daily-driving microg and can share their experiences? https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/wiki/Implementation-Status does not exactly inspire confidence.

Google Update Reveals AI Will Read All Your Private Messages
...will need to be rewritten to avoid Google Play Services.
Not true.
All that needs to happen is for open source developers to "re-implement Google’s proprietary Android user space apps and libraries".

microG itself connects directly to Google: https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/wiki/Google-Network-Connec...
No shit, of course they do.
>In general, we obviously try to minimize the connections to Google, but some services strictly rely on them and would just not work without.
What exactly do you think they should do instead?
