LineageOS is currently installed on 1.5M Android devices
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".

A closer look at e/OS: Murena's privacy-first 'deGoogled' Android alternative
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.

In release notes for GmsCore v0.2.29.233013 (https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/releases/tag/v0.2.29.233013), I also see:
-
[Help] Is there a module I can install that enables push notifications on a device without google services?
Yes, the Xposed module is one way. There are also other ways

Which one should I use? Is this MicroG's official website right? (https://microg.org/)
- New version out 0.30
-
Use ChatGPT Android app w/o Google Play Store installed/enabled
Have a look into https://microg.org/ . Revanced yt uses a fork of GmsCore for its non-root install, though you still have to log in with a google account.

It's definitely possible, you have android virtualization options for linux like QEMU, VirtualBox, Anbox, WayDroid, but most of these are either not great or a bit too advanced for this. Easiest / best bet off the top of my head is dual booting Windows and using BlueStacks

I'm looking for a lightweight distro that runs android apps
This isn't really a distro, but you could try Anbox, which wouldn't have the performance overhead of a virtual machine.

Is there a way to get the netflix tv app on desktop?
Maybe with Anbox
-
I just want to use Linux :(
If school apps have an android alternative anbox may allow you to use it on your linux desktop... Just a thought!
-
Android tablets and Chromebooks are on another crash course – will it be different this time?
last commit was in september, seems like development has stalled. Let's pretend I said waydroid then.
-
Would you use/try snaps if it has open source backend?

- Anbox not working on Ubuntu 22.10
- Patching x86 Android apps to run on x86 Linux?
- is there a emulator to be able to play old android games on my samsung 20?
