And how it’s done in Japan if friends don’t help?

Same way works in eastern Europe. And especially if you give away furniture to get new one,you can ask person who gets your old stuff to help you to bring a new stuff. As a female, this always worked for me.
Only once I paid something like 50 eur for sofa delivery, because it was during week that I had to pick up from private on certain time and friends were working.

How much I agree with you!!! Unfortunately, i don’t have this kind of knowledge, oh I wish I had ! I am not even capable to custom ROM to Lineage Os or GOS… in my circle of friends they are all drawn in Google and not seeing any problem at all. I wish I could be supported during process of customizing OS. I think I already do a pretty great job being with any Google app or service last 3 years, though.

On my Samsung I don’t have G account. I use only apps from Fdroid or if I really really need anything from Gplay, I get it from Aurora… and I am blond, just learned about open source and installed Ubuntu on PC. Not me of course, IT technician 😅

Thanks for your comment, because I really want to get pixel and custom ROM with GOS, but I am soooo scared to ruin something. Never done anything like that… I was even looking for IT specialist who could do that,but no phone service stores does it. I have read manuals how to do it, but still self-esteem is missing as I have know knowledge about it…
