Maybe CalyxOS would be a better fit then?

seems like a good middle ground tbh. No cryptocurrency will ever reach the adoption of fiat. This could make online transactions that would otherwise be made over your creditcard, bank or insert fintech like Paypal quite a bit better

And I’d rather have this than a “digital Euro” or “digital Yuan”

Google is a tech giant, which abuses peoples privacy with every click

Their phones enable users to (at least partially) escape that bs

that’s what I found to be ironic

this is an article from (imo) one of the best privacy/security tech-blogs out there

it’s in German, but you can probably run it through Firefox local translate

https://www.kuketz-blog.de/lineageos-weder-sicher-noch-datenschutzfreundlich-custom-roms-teil4/

I literally mentioned Calyx and Divest OS as alternatives which support non-google devices

also how is buying a used Pixel and degoogling it to the max with GrapheneOS (with reasonable compromises like optional sandboxed GMS) helping Google?
Didn’t know that cutting their mal-/spyware out, and trying to avoid them and their services wherever possible actually helped them, silly me 🤷‍♀️
(I assume this to be the standard way for most ppl and plan on doing that as well once my current Huawei phone breaks)

please learn to read before insulting other ppl with your less-than-a-day-old account lol

It is ironic, but that’s the best you can get in terms of security on Android, which is why GrapheneOS supports nothing else

Lineage OS is a shitshow when it comes to privacy and security

(no locked bootloader, using Google DNS by default)

From what I understand, GrapheneOS has the goals of being the best of the best when it comes to Android security.

There is and always will be CalyxOS or DivestOS for a wider range of devices (both are still much better than the likes of LineageOS and Pixelexperience)

Their network seems to run on some crypto bs, don’t see a reason to use it over Briar or SimpleX for that matter

Like I can just host a Tor node or self host SimpleX

Just like with ublock you have to configure it a bit, especially the blocklists

here is my setup:

(you can also import additional lists, these are rly cool https://github.com/bogachenko/fuckfuckadblock )

From their website:

As online advertising becomes ever more ubiquitous and unsanctioned, AdNauseam works to complete the cycle by automating ad clicks universally and blindly on behalf of its users. Built atop uBlock Origin, AdNauseam quietly clicks on every blocked ad, registering a visit on ad networks’ databases. As the collected data gathered shows an omnivorous click-stream, user tracking, targeting and surveillance become futile.

AdNauseam is a free browser extension designed to obfuscate browsing data and protect users from tracking by advertising networks. At the same time, AdNauseam serves as a means of amplifying users’ discontent with advertising networks that disregard privacy and facilitate bulk surveillance agendas.

Just use Librewolf on desktop, Mull on your phone and be done with it

also I’d recommend Adnauseam instead of ublock. It’s based on ublock but clicks on ads inseatd of blocking them.
Basically a form of protest against surveillance capitalism and obfuscation against it’s methods.
