Yes, it is. I mean, GrapheneOS is the gold standard for privacy&security, but even stock Pixel is a good step up. Think of it like this: on stock Pixel, only Google is tracking you, not Google + Samsung, or Google + Xiaomi. Just Google. It's guaranteed to be a step up from all other Android phones, stock or not.

Boy do I wish the same thing would happen to Meta.

Good take. IMO, lots of people in the privacy community need to hear this take.

Vanadium for when I need to log in and Cromite for daily browsing.

Been pretty decent so far. Was at college for 5-6 hours. Just got back. Hbu?

No, no one cares. I'm the weird/paranoid one for being weary of data collection by tech companies.

I'm in South East Asia (won't reveal more for privacy reasons). Facebook is really popular here.

That's impossible to avoid actually. That's how all colleges in my country work and generally that's how life works. Facebook is massive here and Messenger is the most popular instant messaging app among the youth.
