get yourself a pixel phone and flash it with CalyxOS
de-googled, tracker free, and preloaded with a bunch of great open source privacy apps

you know how if you have a computer you can just download any application or game from some random website and install it?
it wasn't until i switched to android awhile back that i realized you can't do that on an iphone and how messed up that is
I was thinking of moving to a Pixel from my S20Fe and use Calyx or Graphene. Which Pixels do you recommend?
all the pixels are pretty good honestly, it mostly comes down to your budget. i would check the website for the latest list of the ones they support. differences mostly come down to camera quality, storage, etc.
I have flashed but I've been using pixel. 3a is prob the lowest you can use for de-googling and it's still a good phone but much older now and small.
5a is very decent still.
You can go higher ofc.
I was going to look into the pixel 7 series to see if its worth it. I know some of the Pixel generations were barely an upgrade from the last so if 7 isnt much better than 6 I'll probably go lower.
6 is when there's no more earphone jacks.
I like that option so...I'm staying under 6.
And 6a wasn't that much an upgrade from 5a either
