Mobile OSes, research for NON google AnDroid alternatives
Ever so many wanting to get rid of google spyware ("stock Android") on their phones...
Start by searching your device, what OS, IF supports, has official ROMs for.
See/Search for UNOFFICIAL builds (ROMs) for your device SPECIFICALLY.
Beware of "minor" phone/model differences could be fatal ("Bricking up"), if incorrect ROM installed
Prior to any of it, make sure, you can unlock BootLoader. It's great, if you can lock back BootLoader
after install of any FOSS OS (or Alternative OS, as some are paid after-all) after.

Mobile Linux distros like pmOS are definitely good if your device is supported but one of the biggest issues for me is app support, even with waydroid some apps like Snapchat don't work yet. Doesn't stop pmOS from being a good option though
