    FYI GrapheneOS is trivial to install (you don’t need to do all that exploit and root nonsense you used to have to!) and runs entirely without Google Play Services (unless you want to install them in a less-invasive way, which is also officially supported)

      This also applies to most custom ROMs such as Pixel Experience, LineageOS or ArrowOS. Lineage can be installed with or without Google services on most phones

      Trivial to install if you have a pixel phone. As far as I can tell on their website, no other devices are officially supported, and building your own rom for your phone is out of reach for most (even advanced) users

        Correct, they say that pixels are the only phones that are secure enough for their needs (and the fact that they’re pretty developer-friendly I imagine is a big plus)
