Oh yeah it only gets worse lol I'm on the S21 Ultra and it was an undertaking to de-Samsung as much as I could. Also, GrapheneOS never got bad, just the dev that got a little unhinged. But he has since stepped back on the project and regardless of his ramblings, it's still the single most private and secure mobile OS.

How though? They advertsize themselves as the privacy-conscious Google alternative which they very much are. Idk if I've just not been exposed to (their) ads, but do they make all kinds of unreasonable claims like being outside of all legal jurisdiction?
What are they supposed to do as an internationally known and used company? Reject legal proceedings and ignore official national laws?
Using Liftoff right now. Jerboa was also pretty functional. Thunder seemed promising but buggy. Lemmur is abandoned and got forked for Liftoff.
Element X. New and improved Matrix client, so E2EE, decentralized, federated, self-hostable, etc.
