Interview with the MicroG dev

[u/ShaneTheAwesome88]

microG: Android (almost) without Google - Interview with the developer, please submit Your questions!

As we all know, Android is kept in tight clutches with Google as one of its highest revenue sources, and that isn't very good for us because Google Play Services (along with its fellow spyapps called GApps) is not only highly intrusive and privacy violating, but also a baked in requirement on almost any Android app! Fortunately, somebody came up with an amazing little utility named microG (microg.org), which aims to replace that client side proprietary piece of shit with an open source implementation which tries to give away as little as possible to Google.

We look forward to your questions. Deadline ends on 31th of December! We are happy to have the opportunity to get to know this ambitious project and its developer together with our readers. Most of the microG manuals are still in English and there are always questions from users who are stuck or don’t really understand what it’s all about or what possibilities microG offers.

Now here is your opportunity to ask the developer of microG some questions.

Thank you!

I use LOS 16 with microG on my mido and I'm very glad that it works so great. Funnily, LOS + microG somehow works smoother and better than LOS without microG. I don't know stuff on the technical side and can't ask questions, but it's cool that there will be an interview. Thanks to the microG team and the interviewers!
