> So if you're trying to be a silly purist

Could you not do this? There's no need to be hostile to people who purer than you are.

It's fine if you want to make a pragmatic decision to do what works now, but you depend on people who to some degree don't want to compromise. But I always suspect this type of hostility comes from guilt being directed outward; what you actually should want to do instead is support people who are refusing to compromise and building alternatives (even if those alternatives are just ways to get things done without phones.) You will need them one day.

The idea about being dependent on Google to continue to allow you to be hostile to Google on their hardware is intrinsically not sustainable.

You're basically the same as an somebody using whatever the phone company installs mocking somebody who would dare install GrapheneOS, or even an iPhone person ridiculing somebody for using Android at all. What's the use of that?
