I don't have an answer for you, but I, and probably a lot of the other silent up-voters, will be watching closely for an answer. Tablets haven't gotten as much attention as phones. My own is still on a stock OS, even as I've removed more and more google stuff elsewhere. I'm not sure when/if the leap will come.
Same here. Except I didn't get a tablet. Just waiting for a CyanogenMod-style group to get this going. I wish I had the knowhow.
I'm considering a pixel tablet so I can put Graphene on it, but with the change in how google handles sources, I'm no longer sure.
That was my approach until about 3 weeks ago. I hope something good happens soon.
I use Linux on desktop and I've been excitedly watching the various projects to bring FOSS Linux to mobile, but for me personally, it can't be a daily driver yet. Hopefully by the time I'm done degoogling and severing other app dependencies mobile Linux devices will be more evolved and have a better cost/feature ratio more on par with mainstream devices.
I'm mostly disappointed because the way Ubuntu teased a phone that docks to become a PC hasn't really come into full fruition yet. I'm not a Ubuntu user, but I do have a strong preference for working on a full sized screen. Being able to dock my phone to a display and get a non-phone UI means I could just carry a folding keyboard instead of a tablet.
If the EU sponsored an open source OS to reduce dependency on US tech, that could be a saving grace.
