First of all, to anyone downvoting my Comments about /e/ being a piece of shit, because…
-
they advertise themselves as degoogled, but instead let you connect to Google/Microsoft/etc services
-
replace all the propriatery not at all Secure Services from Google, with… Drumroll please… Propriatery and not at all Secure Services from themselves and actively encourage it.
-
They are For-profit
-
and being MORE out of date then even Fairphones stock roms.
… I told you so. Dm your Instance admin, pay them to send the DB entries of your Downvotes on a Thumb drive (or anything else from SSD to 3.5 inchHDD, depending on your preferences), and shove it up your rectum.
But a TL;DR:
/E/ is not Private. They just switch one bad comany to another one.
There are 3rd Party stores for Those too.
Its just not plastered on the Main page of the project
But I wouldnt argue that if you already want a degoogled phone, you have researched enough to at least know where to Ask for such websites
