I have to wonder why #eelo is so popular among people who are trying to "de-google" their lives and use something privacy-respecting and open source. I've personally experienced their censorship on Telegram when I asked a few basic questions about user privacy and how it truly differs from LOS with microG.I also saw that you have to have an account with /e/ before you can use some of the most basic features. It's also incredibly buggy with reports every day about things breaking.

http://ewwlo.xyz/evilTheir commits are also . . . a little weird to say the least. This one seems to be reverting a revision of a reversion:https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/os/android_frameworks_base/commit/b8a11b02637c77dcfac7cac256542bdcc75d521bAnd in this one, all they did was remove Google from the dialer! 😡 https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/os/android_packages_apps_Dialer/commit/c4dedf8320d29d00a2808ce7c7816305f3732aaf

Needless to say, I did not vote for /e/ to be the next mobile OS on the Fairphone 3. Even Replicant is by far the better choice.I really hope to see postmarketOS or Ubuntu Touch on it. They would be really cool 🤔 https://forum.fairphone.com/t/poll-what-os-es-do-you-want-to-run-on-your-next-fairphone-fp3-or-later/44519

@amolithThat project seems disingenuous to me as well. I don't see how they are doing anything different or better than lineage. It feels like their intentions aren't pure when they could be contributing to lineage instead.
