"If you care about privacy and security, you should install GrapheneOS on a Google Pixel phone instead."
This was a reply on Bluesky to my post where I said I was willing to install CalyxOS on my Fairphone. [1]
Before buying a Fairphone, I considered buying a Google Pixel. However, I didn't like the idea of depending on a cloud system to store my photos and music. Not to mention, it's a Google product. I wanted to be able to use an external storage card.
I chose the Fairphone because of the company's mission and the ability to install either /e/OS or CalyxOS. I prefer to stay out of OS wars, but if you can make a case for why one alternative Android OS is better than another in terms of privacy, I'd like to hear it.
