• us What's a good (under $500, preferably lower than $200 though) android for geeks?

  Ironically, Pixels are the best for de-Googling. GrapheneOS requires a Pixel, as does CalyxOS for the most part. If you don't want your money going to Google, a used/refurb Pixel gets around that in my opinion. Source: 12 months ago

• Youtube Premium via VPN

  Oh I see makes sense, one closed system needs another 😅 but if you look at Android, look at https://grapheneos.org/ and https://calyxos.org/. Source: about 1 year ago

• Coverage Critic Coverage Map - Compare Coverage From The Major Networks

  Check cellmapper.net this is the site I always go to ..... Secoond to opensignal.com to get "real device mapping"..... unfortunately both sites are only good as the "users" who have used their respective "apps" around your locale.....though. but through word of mouth the coverage mapping will get better.

  I always tell people about opensignal.com as well as cellmapper.net if they are curious "which network is the best" - it can be complicated for some customers! So tread lightyly or you will end up in "tech support hell" with an 80 year old....lol. Source: almost 3 years ago

• What’s the most reliable service provider in the DC metropolitan area?

  Have you checkd cellmapper.net? or opensignal.com? Unfurtnately the service(s) are only as good as the people that have used the "apps" in that region though....I know when I switched from Virgin Mobile USA to metro years ago, and then to family mobile I used both sites to compare coverage, and it's kinda technical, but interesting....to check your home address, work address, etc.....it's definitely far more...
