Curious what phones are more privacy-focused.

    I recently got myself a Pixel 7 Pro. the preinstalled OS really tries to push all the Google stuff on you, which isn’t great.
    but after a quick look around for 1 hour, I installed GrapheneOS and am very happy with it

    although I’d really like to have a Linux smartphone. but there seems to be none with good hardware…

        Nah, I wanna have a real Linux system, complete with userspace environment and my complete control over everything

        GrapheneOS is pretty cool for now though.
        I haven’t tried PostmarketOS.

        But I’m so in love with my Steam Deck. it’s just pure beauty to have a complete Linux system in this lovely package. I can just ssh into it :⁠-⁠D
        so, it would be awesome to have a device, that would fit in my IT environment. Apple products work better/exclusively with Apple products, Linux stuff works better with Linux stuff.

      You can flash your own mobile linux os to it. I know a guy who did. But he was very knowledgeable about that stuff. And so privacy focused he wouldn’t even show it off 😭
