## Is /e/ LineageOS + microG?
/e/ is forked from LineageOS. We've modified several parts of the system (and it's only the begining): installation procedure, settings organization, default settings. We've disabled and/or removed any software that is sending personal data to Google (for instance, default search engine is no more Google). We've integrated microG by default, have replaced some of the default applications, modified some of the default applications. We have added a synchronization background software service that is syncing multimedia contents (pictures, videos, audio, files...) and settings to a cloud drive, when activated.

We've implemented several /e/ online services, with a single /e/ user identity (user@e.email). This infrastructure will be offered as docker images for self hosting: drive, email, calendar... to those who prefer self-hosting.
