        Get a Google Pixel and install GrapheneOS. First Smartphone/OS combo I really enjoy, mostly because this device is fucking secure. I just can’t bare non-updatabe CFWs, long forgotten branded roms and Google services…

          I am likely going with the pixel, just because of the free-er ecosystem on it, plus the update window they committed to last time around is super nice
