Hi guys basically as the title says. I have a pixel phone running GrapheneOS and I really don’t want to install Play Services. Is there an alternative for me? I need reliable notifications for Telegram and signal. Edit: Thank you all amazing people for helping I learned alot and found best setup for me

      I don’t know, if your goal is security Pixels have the best hardware and GrapheneOS the best software. It makes a lot of sense.

        Sure, but it’s still ironic. I’m not saying that it’s a bad thing to buy a Google device just to degoogle it, but I think that does fit the definition of irony.

        Holy shit I just commented it was ironic, didn’t even say it was bad or good and I got 12 down votes? I suppose the reddit hivemind mentality carries over to Lemmy as well

          that, or bots. Apparently it’s possible to view the list of downvoters, somehow (like through mbin I think), so you may be able to check what sort of content do they post, if any
