@lemmy.mlThanks, I wasn't aware of that. I should have really had this information a year ago when I was constantly screenshotting Google Maps, LOL.
Same, World of Tanks is the first game that comes to my mind when people mention pay2win mechanics. I am quite happy that I don't play that game anymore.
Same, I have recently installed LineageOS on my phone and was looking for various replacements for Goggle apps. What I really like about OrganicMaps is that it downloads the maps locally, so you can view it even if you aren't connected to the internet.
GSI (Generic System Image) ROM-s do have bare-bones apps due to their nature of being mostly designed for developers. That won't really be a problem as you can just install better alternatives to those apps. The problem with these ROM-s is that they most likely won't have drivers for the camera for example. Also the phone has to be Treble-compliant and it has to come with Android 9 (ie. it has to be preinstalled, devices that have been upgraded to Android 9 aren't supported.)
