I have been an Android user for 13 years now. After using almost every Google service possible I am going down the privacy rabbit hole lately. Gmail -> Proton Mail, Chrome -> Firefox, Keep -> Notesnook, Google Search -> Kagi, …
I am currently using a Galaxy S23 with as few Google apps as possible (and focussing mainly on open-source apps). I am familiar with rooting (I was a CyanogenMod user back in the days), but today I want to use the phone without tinkering and problem solving. I also like to use a smartwatch and banking apps, so GrapheneOS is a no-go unfortunately.
So it is “Stock” Android (or Samsung’s Android ) vs. iOS for me. Is it better (in terms of privacy) to use an iPhone or stick with an Android phone with an system wide ad-/tracking Blocker (I use Adguard)? It seems there are more privacy-friendly/open-source apps on Android.
I just explained to you why that is false. Please do not restate your debunked statement prepended with “Again,” itdoes not make it any less wrong.
As for updates, phones from Google, oneplus, Samsung all get 5 years of official updates. Even oppo will give 4 years. You can double check me by searching the web on this.
What??? Only pixels get 5y of update, stop thinking you are superior and know more than others when you’re acting like a moron.
I asked you to check the web to double check me, you still chose to embarrass yourself.
Here’s proof that Samsung supports devices for 5 years. Do you want me to spoon feed you the rest?
