Turned off Google Play Services and Google Play Store since the purchase of a new smartphone & set up F-Droid. Everything just works with much less storage space used (for some reason most proprietary apps from Play store usually come together with ~200 MB of bloatware). I tried to flash a custom ROM, as Sony provides instructions for that, but the build is failing, and I don’t want to sacrifice the proprietary Sony image-enhancing algorithms. So I’m just sticking with the Google Android but no Play Services option.
