Holy fricking shit. What the frick. How is this legal? It's enabled by default. I just switched to android.
It came with 2 browsers chrome and internet. There are 2 messages app. There are 2 cloud apps google drive and one drive. There are 2 app stores. And 2 gallery apps. What the frick? You can't uninstall any of it. Did I fell for the "buy android phone" meme?

Cry more, freak. You’re getting a free service. If you don’t like it, code your own web browser.
>Paid for the phone and everything it entials
>Free anything
Are you pretending to be moronic anon?
>namegay
>tripgay
is it all poo and shills nowaday?
Lol do you think other phones are any different? They all spy on consumers, moron.
>How is this legal?
Do you not know the NSA has been tracking everyone's shit since the 1990's
> seething lying itoddler thread
amazing.
>since the 1990s
zoomzoom, zoomy zoomzoom. they've been spying on everyone since their formation in 1952, you absolutely low iq vantablack gorilla Black person.
>seething lying itoddler thread
Stfu, pajeet.
>spending that much on a phone
same species as iToddlers
>Are you poor?
No, just not stupid.
that's a lot of money for a phone
no such option on my sailfishos, weird

Based anon, escaping the Apple / Google duopoly.
I knew they were collecting stats on your usage of their services but I had no idea they were collecting stats on your usage of other companies' services.
Didn't Meta get bad PR for tracking their users' usage of other apps? How is that any different from a search engine website company tracking your usage of other websites?
Google practically owns the internet.
Antitrust law is dead, all hail the Great Trust in the Clown.
I've been told you can uninstall bloatware over adb on all devices as of a few years ago.
the other two options are worse but you didn't mind
All phones are locked down spying devices for the clueless, you aren't going to find anything better.
>Did I fell for the "buy android phone" meme?
you fell for the jeetdroid meme, yes
midwits like to hate on iphones muh itoddler but it is literally the only phones that are not either
a. broken hardware ootb
b. bloated to hell and back
c. abandoned software after 3 years
it just fricking works. one does NOT need a handheld lintroon computer. tinkertroons should get over themselves and apply for a job
>a. broken hardware ootb
You're holding it wrong. Remember that? I remember that.
>b. bloated to hell and back
It's less bloated than modern Android but that's not a high bar. Windows 10 is probably less bloated than recent shitdroid versions.
>c. abandoned software after 3 years
My iPhone 6 is basically a brick sitting on a shelf due to a lack of OS/app updates.
>my dumpster is better than your dumpster! look, it's only half full of trash and not on fire!
>You're holding it wrong. Remember that? I remember that.
haha memes haha
outright broken hardware is much rarer for iphones. not even the flagship android vendor, google pixel, can get a single model right
>It's less bloated than modern Android but that's not a high bar.
you can remove most of the default apps and it doesn't annoy you with a gorillion unsolicited notifications. it's irrefutably a much more polished and less ANNOYING experience
>My iPhone 6 is basically a brick sitting on a shelf due to a lack of OS/app updates.
>he boughted a non S model
that was also right before the current meta of 7+ years of updates. still, it had 4 years of support, which was more than most androids up until recently
>>my dumpster is better than your dumpster! look, it's only half full of trash and not on fire!
not saying it's perfect of course. i'm still using my 6s which is currently at 8 YEARS of updates. as long as you have reasonable expectations, i.e not expecting a handheld lintroon computer it's good. i do not have to think about my fricking phone and neither should you
>you can remove most of the default apps
The bloat is iOS itself. I want to remove it and install a custom OS that's higher quality and less janky, but every time someone mentions this you scream "troony troony troony LONIX TROONERS" like a moronic homosexual. I would be willing to port Linux or NetBSD and write a custom UI layer but crapple does not allow bootloader unlocking, nor would they publish any specs to write drivers.
>inb4 wHy Do YoU nEeD iT whUts dA uSe CaSe
Look up the recent iCloud shitshow. That's why.
>that was also right before the current meta of 7+ years of updates. still, it had 4 years of support, which was more than most androids up until recently
4 years? 7 years? Refrigerators used to last 40 years and came with electrical schematics on the back.
>i do not have to think about my fricking phone and neither should you
You don't think at all.
>oem
The OEMs are the morons whose code I want to delete. I have a Nexus 5 (2013) that I still flash dev images to (mainly personal hacked up Sailfish builds for fun). Supporting these older devices is not only possible but would be extremely easy with proper documentation.
Shills lack the wetware so they think only a billion dollar company can do what I'm describing. 5 unpaid neckbeards can do it in a month.
>my 10 year old phone is a brick! iOS isa failure!
how many android phones from 2014 are getting oem software updates
Android is only bloated if you don't buy companies that only have stock Android on it like Google or Motorola .
The draw back is that you have to use Motorola who is notorious for dropping support one year after a phone is released.
iPhones only have one browser. They can't even use uBlock origin, LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
False. Brave works great on iPhone and has adblock builtin.
Safari supports extensions, including adguard and sponsorblock, straight from the official app store. And it supports userscripts without the need for an extension.
Safari is literally the browser that IQfydroid craves.
>download f-droid/droid-ify
>download Mull, Fennec, Cromite, and/or Vanadium, etc.
>disable Chrome or delete it with adb
Debloat it you don't even need root
This is just what you get when you don't go for custom ROMs.
Vendor-supplied Android versions suck. Especially Samsung.
Install a custom Android version, like LineageOS.
>samsung
id rather use iphone at that point
this is nothing
edge on desktop leaks your search history in like 5 different ways by default
Not a problem on my Pixel. Install GrapheneOS.
>grapheneOS
don’t the majority of people already have that software installed in their bodies? LOL
Install PostMarketOS and enjoy having a hardened musl kernel. Also enjoy barely being able to do anything without it forcing you to actually linux.
Or just do what King here does:
>Not a problem on my Pixel. Install GrapheneOS.
Why don't you want to make searches and browsing better, anon?
>send my urls
kek Gboard is a key logger. this is the least of your worries.
Use it:
https://github.com/Universal-Debloater-Alliance/universal-android-debloater-next-generation
Uninstall all the recommend ones and, if you want, uninstall others you don't use
>finally buy an android phone
>get a Samsung
This is why you should use a private browser like Brave.
>How is this legal.
You've been using this browser for less time than that feature has been standard and are just finding out about it. Therefore I conclude your stupidity and duplicity is the reason it is legal.
you can via adb but I agree it sucks how much of pain in the ass it is. Removed all the xaomi bullshit that came with mine so far it has not come back.
You're acting like you can't just install netguard and turn the setting off.
no shit, moron. Fill it with disgusting porn so some ESL c**t has to spend at least a day reviewing it all. Even better set up a bash script to cycle through pages & pages of it. BECOME UNGOVERNABLE

No, you fell for the "buy a Samsung phone" meme. Next time you'll buy a Google Pixel, or a Motorola smartphone.
Btw you can probably uninstall or disable them with ADB.
>I just switched to android.
Reminder that Motorola is just Lenovo now, and belongs in chinkshit general.
Yes android sucks but iPhone has the same problem. The best thing you can do is to buy an android phone that you can easily install a custom rom on to remove all that garbage.
>I just switched to android.
Big mistake
>not grapheneos
Learn to use ADB, unironically that how you clean your phone of shitty pteinstalled garbage.
