Honestly, too many to choose from. My phone is 99% FOSS right down to the icons.

I was very surprised when I came upon this comment. My first thought was when did I write this

Pretty similar names indeed. I did make an account for myself here on Beehaw but I clearly messed up the password. I might send a message to someone to sort that out.

So, I cannot (read: not allowed to) say exactly what I am using (it is a prototype Android device) but it isn't rooted at all. So, maybe it is 70% FOSS. I used ADB to remove and disable everything Google I could (I left keyboard, dialer, contacts, webview) and everything I use comes from F-Droid.
