You're really not screwed for privacy by using Android! GrapheneOS is the most secure mobile OS you can get, and it's "just" an Android custom ROM - Pixels only, but it's really trivial to install and you can then install a sandboxed version of Google Play Services if you want. If you don't have a Pixel there's DivestOS, which is a privacy-focused fork of good old LineageOS. Even if you can't be arsed with a custom ROM then a few small changes can make a massive improvement. Have a read of Privacy Guides (or their official community at [email protected]), and I'm happy to answer questions if you do actually care!
Thanks for your input here @smeg
I hope for the sake of humanity that you guys can change things for the better.
