  • I hear lots of great things about Graphene but it’s only able to run on Pixel phones. I have a LineageOS installed on my phone & I have full control over the firewall, and there’s no google on it. Got the phone a year ago, battery still lasts 2 days of occasional use. It’s amazing how nice a phone feels without ads, constant upload/download, and unneeded background services running.

    Basically, and even with Graphene, the biggest security risk for a phone is the person using it. I wish it were more turn-key but the tracking with cookies is just the tip of the iceburg… apps like to track too and if you need an app outside of the free-open-source-software circle you should know how to control its access to the internet.



  • If anything anyone could also just pick a mail routing server, pay like $50 a year and have as many emails for as many domains as they want. I got one, I have like 8 domains pointed to it for emails. All I had to do was fill in the blanks for the DNS page for the domain (mx, and the spf+dkim) and all emails I send go to inbox like butter. Unlimited email accounts, takes 15 seconds to make, no phone no name no nothing just email+pass and it exists now.

    gmail was nice for a bit, but shit man I don’t want to give my life story and phone number every time I want to make an email address.
