I keep an eye on Linux phones & the Raspberry Pi zero 2 w as my mobile PC since I expect that Google Inc. will continue to cause troubles in the future – PETER GAMMA (Director & Physiologist), MEDITATION RESEARCH INSTITUTE SWITZERLAND (MRIS)

I am very negative about Google Inc.
A problem which Google caused me since years can be solved as described here:

The problem Google Inc. caused to since years is solved in theory: Softmaker Office for Android allows to read /write to an usb flash drive connected to an Android phone

And again there is a problem caused by Google Inc.
If we decide for a Google free phone with Graphene OS, we have to install Google apps on our phone to install Softmaker Office for the solution described above.
And then our phone is not Google free anymore.
And how long will it take until Google blocks the above solution?
And GrapheneOS requires a Google phone.
And how long will it take until Google blocks the installation of GrapheneOS in their phones?

After all the problems Google Inc. caused us in the past, we expect that these things we describe here will happen sooner or later. Therefore it is worth to keep an eye on Linux phones and the Raspberry Pi zero 2 w as an alternative.
