It’s a good video, but I prefer this:
Don’t use any closed-source stuff.
Then you’ve escaped 99%.
When you need something, just search on F-Droid; you’ll find it.
This way, it’s much easier.

You need to unlock bootloader first

Let me clarify myself.
I hate Google
I don’t even have a Google account I did 100% De-Google
I even think of blocking google.com (but it would also block ReCaptcha)
and you confuse by devices they don’t mean “the device itself” they mean device with their stock rom
here is a screenshot that show if you get a certificed device and flash a custom ROM

“Android Security Bulletins will still be released, and picked to all supported LineageOS versions monthly.” LineageOS

F-Droid’s security model has long been known and discussed by other prominent developers.
Yeah, by privsec.dev (which is owned by a GrapheneOS employee and ex-developer: akc3n and TommyTran732),
and madaidan (who is a GrapheneOS fan),
and Privacy Guides (there are many GrapheneOS developers in this project).
Just give me up-to-date information about F-Droid from someone not related to GrapheneOS.
They have uBlock Origin Lite now.
Yeah, a handicapped version of uBlock Origin.
And you really believe that they killed V2 for security? If you do, I have a cheap bridge for you.
But criticizing the decisions of an open-source project
If they smear projects that are a real choice for quitting Google and Microsoft (which are F-Droid, Firefox, and Linux), of course I’ll criticize.

Here is a good information from LineageOS;
Over the last few years, AOSP has been shifting to a quarterly release cadence, meaning that new features and bug fixes are released every three months. link

GrapheneOS is ok but the people behind don’t have good reputation on open-source; They smear F-Droid, Firefox, Linux even uBlock Origin https://lemmy.zip/post/59060122

*If you don’t put space
This is exactly what’s wrong with social media platforms and I don’t want to use anything like that.
