    Yeah that’s a fair point. Some android models do have minimal or none bloatware, like Google pixel… But also then papa Google owns your ass lol

      I was actually looking at moving to a pixel fold but the Gemini shit that I can’t turn off turned me away. The Samsung fold7 is incredibly tempting too, but again, I refuse to use their adware riddled shit.

          It’s a change Google recently announced. Going forward, you can turn off some of your interactions with Gemini but it will continue running the background anyway, collecting data and shit, and there’s nothing you can do about it.
