It's time to start my GrapheneOS journey. Any tips/recommendations for starting?

My plan:

1) Use the owner profile only for administrative purposes.

2) Whenever possible, use nostr:npub10r8xl2njyepcw2zwv3a6dyufj4e4ajx86hz6v4ehu4gnpupxxp7stjt2p8 and Obtanium.

3) Avoid unnecessary apps.

4) Don't be too restrictive; it's a midterm project.

Congrats and welcome to the fam!

I am using the main profile for applications that do not compromise my privacy, e.g. do not need Google Play Services. For everything else: Sandboxed profile with GP services, disabled cross-profile-notifications.

Also consider de-googling yourself. I have moved everything away. Feels much more natural to not use Gmail or Gmaps.

There are alternatives for everything.

Yeah, I'm more or less already degoogled 💪

The only product which I use up and then is Google Maps. I'll give alternative apps a shot
