Hello

I’m being pushed into the market by google/android to acquire a new phone due to it slowing down. I’m sick of this marketing tactic and the clutter of preinstalled apps and junk software.

What phone and operating system could I get that could allow me to use for a long period of time and out of reach from subversive tactics from giant corporations?

I’m basically a farmer and so know nothing about coding and not too technologically oriented but would really like to break away from the capitalist/hyperconsumerist phone craze. Thank you.

    Just thought of it but have you tried a factory reset? Maybe something just got off kilter and that would give you a blank slate.

      I just did one and it is working a lot better. Still, a good reason to be preparing as my phone’s days ate numbered lol
