You can also disable Google Assistant on any device
But then you'd still have a googled phone.
Yes but the meme specifically references being forced to use Google assistant.
Yes, but I use it as a springboard to shoot against Google in general.
Fair enough! Happy shooting to you, friend.
Sure, but you still get a ton of annoying pop ups asking you to re-enable it. If it doesn't just do it without consulting you.
At least, that's been my experience on various Samsung phones..
Weird, I've been using my S10e since release, turned off most Assistant stuff and have seen neither the Assistant nor any suggestions to use it. Is that a regional thing?
S10e has a dedicated Bixby button right next to volume down though and it's quite difficult to reprogram it, if you don't use Bixby.
I love that button! Use it to turn my flashlight, play/pause music, toggle screen rotation. One of the reasons I haven't moved on from s10e. Others being reasonable size and 3.5mm jack.
Disable Bixby with the Android Debloat Utility
Maybe regional, maybe a problem introduced later than the s10 🤷
