What I mean is how much do you use open-source software on these privacy disrespecting phones (Xiaomi, Samsung, etc).

For example I use these apps on my Redmi 13C: -Floris board as keyboard -Breezy as weather app -VLC, Vanilla and Kodi as media players -Fossify as voice recorder -SimpMusic instead of Spotify -Nekogram (Telegram client) -Organic maps instead of Google Maps -Sealnote notes -Persian calendar as calendar -FDroid as store -Jerboa and Dawn (Reddit client)

etc.

All of this is about 10% since I have 100+ apps.

    Well like 50% of my apps are open source but I still use android so I mean, how open source is it really. Anyone know of FOSS launchers? I currently use Niagara and it looks great but I’d love something open source

        Did you try KISS launcher? If yes, what did you like more about Kvaesitso that you use it instead?

          I’m a huge fan of the KISS launcher, everything else feels bloated and annoying to me now.

          Highly recommend KISS. They are both equally great launchers.

          I used KISS prior to this one. It is an excellent paged launcher.

          My KISS install had an issue of requesting a permission everytime I unlocked the phone. I could not remove the notification or mute it. So I switched out.

          Either of them covered all of the features I am looking for.
