Those of you who install non-google-play apps (aka: sideloading), what's your gameplan for the upcoming Google restrictions on Sideloading?
Edit: Replaced "Restrictions" in place of the word "Ban"

Wait until it affects me. Just like when I ditched Chrome. Just like when I ditched Windows. I used Vanced long after they were stopped, didn't switch to ReVanced until Vanced literally could not play anymore. I'm the latest adopter, for sure. By the time I make a change, the path of what I want to do has been well-tread by others.
So you're ditching Android, for what? Is there an actual Linux phone you're looking for, are are you gonna carry around a pocker-sized PC? (genuinely asking)
Don't know yet! I would assume get a phone that supports Graphene or Lineage. But I'm not opposed to some PDA sized Pi Zero Frankenstein abomination if it does what I want it to.
My plan is the stick to using older phones that google wont bother pushing the update out to. Forever if need be.
My LG Velvet 5G is still going strong. Hoping Lineage or Graphene will release a rom for it someday.
That device didn't meet the requirements for GrapheneOS even when it was supported by the OEM. As of now, it is an EOL device and is highly insecure. https://grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices
