As weird as the title sounds, my family really dislikes me using Tuta and not Gmail. Is your family also like this?

"Come on, Sarah, can't you just be normal and use Gmail like everyone?"

  • my mom, scolding me.

Only Google Phones are compatible with gOS. I'd recommend getting a different phone the next time. Xiaomi is a shitty company doing their best at sourcing their resources for the hardware the worst way possible. And they are a privacy nightmare.

They are the only ones supporting several hardware based security features.

its the only phone that "passes their security standards"
