Other option: I've heard of GrapheneOS, but have yet to give it a try. I think I will soon.

Thanks. Yeah, I was checking out Pixel phones this morning for Graphene. I'll probably go with a 7.

Yea, you don't need the "last" pixel phone, it's a good way.

I got a pixel 4 on ebay for $90 just to try it out...been using it for 4 months now and love it 🤙

Does it still receive security updates? That might be a problem. I recommend Pixel 7 (or 8) for new GrapheneOS users.

Is the camera on the pixel 4 lots better than on the pixel 2?

The pixel 2 camera was outstanding, back in the day. But some of the more recent phone cameras are a huge improvement.

I use Lineage because I do not consider necessary to buy an expensive Pixel device. But I do not use regularly SN on mobile.

My mobile device is exclusively for making LN payments and answer my mom "urgent" calls. That's all.

Some motivation to use graphene

It's worth noting that push notifications aren't safe on graphene either. If you have anything sensitive, make sure they're turned off at the app level

I immediately had the same thought when I saw a Telegram notification about this story from No BS Bitcoin.

Where is the option "I hate GrapheneOS, but I'm using it anyway"? I moved off an iPhone and it's a decidedly much worse experience, but I'm sticking to it for privacy reasons.

I am hellbent on using grapheneOS for my next phone OS, however its going to be a good while for me before I save enough for a new phone. Im not too keen on buying a older model that I will not use as a daily driver
