Calyx is absolutely dogshit for privacy.
GrapheneOS or nothing.
There is no second best.
Discussion
Sure thing, officer.
Only criminals want privacy, devices built by Google are perfectly safe.
I pray that your life does not depend on privacy 🙏

I've lived long enough to see someone say that my privacy is safeguarded through a Google device. 🤔
Journalists working in hostile environments, politicians under surveillance, dissidents and personnel working under cover ain’t using CalyxOS, Librem or Blackphone.
This is the reality and doesn’t factor in ‘feelings’ or ‘gut instincts’ about Google products.
Imagine being able to buy the cure for cancer from Walmart but refusing because Walmart also sells food products that can cause cancer.
Curious that you mention that point, because those are exactly the people who'll quickly be targeted when using a compromised phone.
You even know the other better options and yet dismiss them like its nothing. Those who care for those in risk would advice them to avoid any suspicious tools or hardware.
Are you a foreign agent?
No shit Sherlock. That’s why they should not use second rate second tier privacy preserving mobile phone device’s and OS’s.
I’ll repeat it again for those with ears that are painted on:

Do you know why I dismiss them and why anyone else whose life literally depends on privacy and security also dismisses them?
Because they don’t come close to the level of real time security and privacy that nostr:nprofile1qqs9g69ua6m5ec6ukstnmnyewj7a4j0gjjn5hu75f7w23d64gczunmgpz4mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujumt0wd68ytnsw43q4gnztg provides.
Facts don’t care about your feelings towards Google 🫠
Well, now it is obvious you are a gov bot.
Sorry, we will keep pointing out to journalists that using a suspicious android distribution on a compromissed hardware is bad for them, just as much as you'll be repeating otherwise to fool them.
At least you're getting paid, so it ain't that bad.
You haven’t zapped me once for telling the truth. Why not anon? Are you going to pay? Are you a believer in value for value?
You're telling the truth, albeit only half of it.
That also counts as fooling others.
Show us your cards.
What phone and what OS are you advising a journalist to use in an incredibly hostile environment where 1 security mistake will end in certain death?
Nice try, FBI.
Just as I thought.
No opinion, no back bone, no balls.
Just more noise in an already noisy world.
Disappointing but not unexpected.
Feel free to jump back into the fray once you have something to say 🫡
Yeah, good try. You get a few cents for each reply or just a daily rate?
Today is sunday, you should really ask for better work conditions to your employer.
Don’t jump back into the fray unless you are willing to man up and show your cards.
Your ears and eyes really are painted on aren’t they!?

Someone trying to convince people to use an OS without basic security patches is strange.

They announced on the site a restructuring, unlike yourselves who seem to have magic funding coming from somewhere.
Thanks, but no thanks FBI.
