Comment on: Is there a mobile OS that comes without all the stock apps?
[LineageOS](https://lineageos.org/) and its relatives come more barebones than commercial Android versions. Plus better privacy, with all Google spying removed. LineageOS comes preloaded with a web browser, gallery, camera, calendar, clock, SMS, email, music, voice and screen recorder, calculator and file manager. They are pretty minimal apps. I have been using it for about a year and I like it a lot. (I switched when Google announced that they would be baking contact tracing into their version of the Android OS.) Some things to keep in mind are that you'll need a [compatible phone](https://wiki.lineageos.org/devices/) to install it, and whether you choose to install the optional Google apps support will impact your privacy and what apps you can install.

Comment on: Fuck you.
There is an unofficial build for the S8, however it comes with some caveats. It is somewhat buggy, and it will only work if yours is a model that can have its bootloader unlocked. Unlocking the bootloader is only possible on the Exynos versions of the S8/S8+/Note 8 or the Snapdragon model purchased outside of the U.S. Not all Galaxy phones sold in the U.S. can be unlocked. https://www.xda-developers.com/unofficial-lineageos-17-1-android-10-samsung-galaxy-s8-plus-note-8/
