Nah. I wouldn’t do that to my kids. I grew up on games and was always annoyed at those adults shaking fists telling me about how games lead to violence and all that bs. If that’s your thing, cool, but not here.

I grew up on games as well.
It's to limit screen time.
You can limit screen time really well and easily with iOS ironically …
But iPhones still track and collect tons of personal data.
The no games is shot about limiting screen time and preventing video game addiction.
GrapheneOS is about preventing tracking andvl data collection.
Your broad statements make no sense. What data? Be specific. Apps specifically state what data they collect.
That's just it. My FOSS apps don't collect any data.
When it comes to Big Tech you never know what's being collected without doing graduated level research into all your apps, hence the broad term.
I do think there's a difference between console/PC games and the garbage that is mobile games, but that might just be my old brain bias.
I know apple has a lot of good games, but still, if you're going to be playing games, play the really cool ones 😛
Some games are designed for engagement specifically and offer absolutely nothing in terms of development. I’m thinking subway surfer, temple run etc… but other games engage the brain to solve problems and I have no issues with those games.
