Ive been using google's services since 2017-2018, now its time to finally depart from that. I just got it in the mail yesterday and I'm already in love with it. So much lighter and easier to carry than my samsung galaxy. Gonna transfer everything over in a sim card, switch to Tmobile and ill be good to go. ๐Ÿ˜

everyone noting that T-mobile is evil, please note that here in the USA where corporate oligarchy is the defacto system, there are only 3 actual carriers (T-Mobile, AT&T, Verizon) with each of these having several other brands that are subsidiaries or affiliates that piggyback on their networks. And T-Mobile has a distinct advantage for degooglers in that they are GSMA, still offer physical sims, and do not have strict "whitelists" for compatible devices, like the other two carriers (whose business ethics are just as bad as T-Mobile's.)
