Thanks for your suggestion.

After a brief look, the project contains proprietary Google components, advertisements, and trackers. Is there a version without all of these?

jigar-f commented 3 months ago

hey @offa Thanks for getting back to us Yes, we do have advertisements, but not sure about Google components and trackers, Could you please elaborate?

offa commented 3 months ago

According to Exodus there are 3 trackers. Additionally Google GMS is proprietary and as far as I know, at least the two listed Google services are too.
