The website “Keep Android Open” is an initiative to protest and advocate against a new policy by Google which bans sideloading apps. The goal is to pressure Google to reverse or modify this policy to protect the open nature of the Android platform and the ability to sideload or use 3rd party app stores without excessive restrictions https://keepandroidopen.org

There’re also concerns that #LineageOS and other open source phone operating systems cannot support all hardware devices.
For me, 99% of all devices aren’t eligible at all for human rights reasons. For me, human rights come before performance, features and so forth.
The only manufacturers being considered for me are @Fairphone and @shiftphones. Maybe there’re a few others.
(I’m not involved in those companies at all, I’m just a user.)
