Most people just want to be bitcoiners AND live a normal life. This does not include going full commando paranoia and switching to an obscure degoogled self assembled phone.

Normal Life? to be able to install the apps I want in my device should be normal.

Normal just means embracing the psychological warfare of advertising companies instead of being sane.
For example, people who say "sideload" instead of "install app".
"Oh you put curtains over your windows what creepy paranoid freaks" That's how the brainrot populace sounds like sometimes.

I think there's a middle ground, though. You can degoogle a phone with graphene or lineage or something else and even still use Google apps (just sandboxed). The phone can still be a standard Google or Samsung device. Or you can take a reasonable amount of care with how you use your standard Android (or even iOS) device and what you put on it.
And yeah, it also depends on how much one's interacting with the system -- someone just hodling may not care as much as someone actively sending and receiving a lot and concerned about tracking.
