Murena, the French privacy firm that’s forked Android to deliver so-called deGoogled smartphones, has repeated the trick with a tablet. So if you’re keen to get your hands on a shiny Pixel Tablet — but without the usual bundle of Google apps and services — Murena has you covered.

You just paying a third party to install the rom for you.
For some people that has value. For security people they should reinstall the ROM anyway to know what is really installed.
They install eos, but you could also install gos.
It’s a way to fund development and make it possible for the masses to buy deGoogled. Not everybody knows how to install a ROM nor wants to take the time to learn. Even if it took a minute, they wouldn’t. That’s why this is a good initiative “wanna degoogle, just buy degoogled - no fuss, no muss”.
Bingo, right now I don’t have a pc at all. If I wanted a degoogled tablet I would have to buy a pc and then learn how to do everything. If I only wanted a tablet that would be a lot of time and money just to get a degoogled device.

GrapheneOS can be installed using an Android device
So I can degoogle a device using a google device? That’s cool
Yep! You can use a Google device to degoogle a Google device, and then go back and use that newly degoogled device to degoogle that first Google device.
/e/OS is highly insecure, and Murena tries to sell privacy to customers, while offering an unencrypted cloud service, that honestly isn’t any better than mainsteam solutions like Google Drive, OneDrive or whatever.
At this point, you’re better off getting an iPad, and using iCloud with the Advanced Data protection program.
If you actually want a secure, privacy-friendly and degoogled tablet, get a (preferably used) Google Pixel tablet, and install GrapheneOS on it. It’s not just the most secure mobile OS out there, but it also doesn’t come with any integrated cloud nonsense, so you’re free to choose which service you want to use and whom you want to trust with your data.
