Saw a youtuber saying Apple doesn’t sell data to third party organizations. Is this true? And what about google’s android on pixel devices?

    Yes. From worst to best would be

    • stock android
    • ios
    • degoogled android (LineageOS or similar)
    • GrapheneOS (obviously without sandboxed google play installed)

      For privacy I dont think there is much difference between AOSP based rom and Graphene.

        Ah, i bet i am thinking security then. I know Graphene hardens some things, changes the NTP timeserver, changes the ConnectivityCheck, and i think the CaptivePortal too. It also allows you to lock the bootloader again to prevent evil msid attacks.

      I can’t disagree with this. I myself use unlocked xiaomi phones installed with custom roms and microG.
