What makes you say Degoogled Android might go extinct? Projects like LineageOS and GrapheneOS are still going strong. /e/OS, murenaOS, VollaOS and other similar phones have been coming out of the woodwork recently. I think DeGoogled Android is just getting started.
That is, unless, you mean Google is working hard to close down AOSP so the downstream DeGoogled projects don’t function anymore? Then yeah, I sadly have to agree.
google doing their best to make me move to a different platform for my next phone.
anybody know of other options?
I don’t think anything other than degoogled Android is mature enough to recommend. And it looks like degoogled androids might extinct soon.

Google has already closed down AOSP a bit. They now publish the source code less frequently.
It feels that it is either Linux phones, or Fairphone, or GrapheneOS. We are somewhat fucked.
Linux phones are about to get interesting.
I’ve heard that 15 years ago
Same with what we were hearing about the Linux desktop!
…yet here we are in 2026 and literally all my desktops have since become Linux, lol.
