I agree, it isn’t completely ungoogled yet, that is the first goal: leaving Google completely. For example “Contacts” app still seems to be Google. When you go in to “Contacts > menu (typical Google hamburger icon above left) > about contacts > privacy policy” your default browser shows the Google privacy policy webpage.
The same thing happens in “Contacts > menu (typical Google hamburger icon above left) > about contacts > Terms of service” your default browser opens the Google terms of service webpage.
What is the com.android.contacts app? Google open source. There is still some ungoogling to do before the /e/ version 1.0 with a new name comes out.
Lets face it, Android is built by Google on a Linux kernel, to have a phone that is completely free of Google or Apple: buy a pure Linux phone.
/e/ is already easy to use, it is easy to install most of the G00gl stuff on it if you want to, so I really don’t see any reason to start “reGoogling” now. Let’s try to “unGoogle” it further!
