  • GOS = Easy to super easy

    Linage / other on Samsung = hard

    In the past other roms on devices have caused issues for me (I’m happy to deal with them) and others (who would prefer to just use google).

    I understand you want the best for your friend, but if there already immersed the best experience for them is just default samsung.

    It would be better IMO to format, debloat, and then install some privacy friendly options.

    • FDroid
    • Thunderbird / Email client of choice
    • signal
    • browser of choice
    • etc

    That way they have some privacy apps to get started.

    I use the version before the change. There’s some easy instructions to run it as a Linux package (? Sorry not sure of the terminology) as android can do that. The only issue is you dont have a direct GUI and need to use the web interface. I believe its much smaller and more efficient than any app, not to mention uses the “official” version.
