They're transitioning away from the making money off of hardware phase, and into the making money off of you phase.

As a result, I am transitioning away from being one of their customers.

For as cursed as our timeline is, "Linux desktop is solid, LLMs exempt you from the fiddly bits, and valve fixed gaming" was not on my bingo card 10 years ago, but hot damn, we just might be okay.

To who?

GrapheneOS works great and does not want to push ads, subscriptions, and whatnot. Now Pixel-only, next year also certain Motorola models.

Linux, mostly, and other companies’ services. Though I am really not prepared to jump to Android.
