Interesting article from a generalist magazine. According to it:

  • Best Preinstalled Phone: Fairphone 6 With /e/OS
  • Best for Pixel Phones: GrapheneOS
  • Best for Non-Pixel Phones: /e/OS
  • For the DIY Tinkerer: LineageOS

Don't disagree in that point. The problem is, that phone companies don't want to support anything really... so until an open source project in that regard, is accepted by the major phone companies, we would have a hard time switching... And since they are paid and bribed by the ones in majority, like Google and Apple, that won't likely happen, unless there's some good politicians doing their gd dmn job...
