You're asking a member of GrapheneOS to summarise their experiences so obviously you'll get a pretty positive answer.

It works very well and there's the ability to have Google Play in a sandbox should you need apps that require and depend on it or if you are going to use it more like the average person. If you used Android you'll feel close to home. Unfortunately some apps block running on any OS that isn't a Google certified one but this isn't something we can control. I'd recommend checking if your apps work on there first and if it not working is a non-negotiable.

Well, I am asking to everyone who had an experience with it. But thanks for your insights. I use android. I don't use many apps but for example, if I use google and youtube without using my account with a GrapheneOS, then I guess, the searches I make are completely private. It would be interesting to know if they allow apps to mine some sats or is that a bad idea because it can harm the phone? Sorry if I make very ordinary questions, I am still learning about these things.

What you search on YouTube is known to YouTube because you are doing it on YouTube. The platform wouldn't make a difference. Their ability to infer an identity to the searches is dependent on other information you give it, like your account, IP address etc.

There could be mining apps, but I don't think they'd be a good platform to do it on. Get a cheap mining hardware.

Thanks for your info. I appreciate it a lot. This weekend I am going to do research on this topic. Have a nice day!
