I'm aware of the fact, that almost all app form the Play Store or Aurora store do have one or more tracker build-in. For this reason I self-host a Adguard Home server and my phone is connected via DoT to this server. It's unbelievable how many crap is filtered every day.

You are right. I knew this already. I'm still following you on Mastodon. 😉 But to be honest, people don't care so much about this important details. People using CalyxOS usually don't install Google apps or services. CalyxOS uses still Googles time and GPS server, but is stripping out some information. And eSIM aktivaion goes to Google, if I remember right.

I used GrapheneOS for several month on my Pixel 6 and switched now to CalyxOS to see the differences.
GrapheneOS is heavily security focused. But Google Play, even in a Sandbox, is a privacy concern for me, because I still can't really control or see what it's doing.
CalyxOS is more privacy focused. With MicroG I can see what apps are connected to the Google notification server and even block it. Maps data is from open street maps and not from Google maps.
@[email protected] That sounds great. Can't wait to test this out.
