There are a lot of really good free software Android apps, like, almost enough to have a usable phone with only free software.
I use
- Firefox as my browser
- Signal for messaging
- VLC to play media
- OSM for maps
- Twidere for twitter.
I still need (feel free to suggest one!)
- a camera with nice filters (I use B612)
- a fast and good UX wrapper around the nextbus API (I use the Transit app)
- email, calendar, etc... but my accounts are with google, so, meh
@morganastra Chromium is FOSS, right? I think I use mostly free software too.
@ashkitten chromium on desktops is. Chrome is not open source even on desktops because they include a bunch of proprietary codecs and stuff, and the Android Chrome build is full of proprietary gunk
@morganastra I use Chrome on Android though, because I use the Google tab sync features :(
@ashkitten ah, yeah. that's fair. you can get that feature in free software if you use firefox (on both desktop and android) though!
@morganastra Firefox is nice... I can't remember the specifics on why I left it, probably because of Hangouts.
