Its a fork of the now discontinued Mull browser.

Are these private friendly? I would assume that an ID would still be made on you based on purchases.

Where do you live? Can’t be the US.

Thank you for the explanation! So essentially, you use your sim free phone as a very portable laptop.

I like the idea of having a sim free phone and have a feature phone for cellular service. I miss the aesthetic of flip phones! I would just need to find one that supports hotspot (just in case) and decent navigation.

I am thinking of switching to graphene as well, but this is the first I am hearing about the risks of having a sim card. Apologize for my ignorance, but how would you get service on a phone without at least an esim card? I’m also interested in a high level of privacy and anonymity (within reason).

I was going to try signal until I learned that it requires a phone number. So instead I started trying out SimpleX.
