Yes.

/e/ comes with its own cloud services, supports a different set of phones than lineage and sells preinstalled refurbished phones. New Fairphones are available with /e/ preinstalled.

Probably all secure variants of Android are based on Lineage.

Every(*) OS available for Android hardware is based on AOSP: Gandroid (Google), Harmony (Huawei), Fire (Amazon), Lineage (the only free one). You could start from scratch (AOSP), but that would require years of development.

(*) AsteroidOS is not based on Android/AOSP but only made for Smartwatches (WearOS or Android type).

It happens, when you use special chars (code points) to simulate text formating. If you do not use bold formating in a PDF but simulate it with code points of mathematical characters that look like ordinary letters with bold formating it will happen in PDF.

You own a social media network (mastodon.ar.al) that operates in the EU and will therefore become subject to #ChatControl (like Apple, making its withdrawal from scanning devices obsolete). Will you close your network once ChatControl becomes law?

KBA doesn’t deregister anything. Even the Dieselgate cars are still all on the road.

However you are not allowed to use the Berlin Police Parking ground with a Tesla, as the police in Berlin thinks Teslas do not comply with GDPR. (There are many parking spaces just outside the grounds of Berlin police headquarter, so it does not really matter and police men have just to walk 10 more meters…)

Please keep in mind that 99% of [population of earth|population of continent X|population of country X|population of your hometown] do not know what FOSS is and cannot remember to ever have heard or read the term.
Also it is my experience, that if you use a word (like FOSS) that the person you talk with does not know or understand, them will most likely not show in any way that they do not understand what you are talking about and act as if they did. It is a dilemma.
