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.

You could also use F-Droid, specially along with some of the alternative repos like IzzyOnDroid and Guardian project, it's pretty much big tech free. I've been on @GrapheneOS for couple of months now, good stuff!

In various Youtube videos people are talking about security concerns with F-Droid.

For now I try to stick with applications from source (Obtanium) and Zapstore, as I like the idea with the social graph

Huh!? What security concerns? The whole F-Droid pipeline is open source and verifiable. Either there's a vulnerability that's been discovered and is being worked on, or whoever is making these claims are fear mongering for some other reason.
