So it is true. Why do you call it not true?
This. Thread can be closed
No. It’s not. Please take a look at different licenses in this area, whatever ‘libre’ means
I recommend disabling iCloud
Not really. On Android you can do much to achieve much more privacy. On iOS you can nearly do nothing. The options provided by Apple to restrict data usage are not doing their jobs according to privacy analysis by Kuketz thus resulting in a Apple marketing campaign based on lies that most believe and are convinced of
How mich privacy do you want?
Much? Don’t use Apple. It is worse than Android. Google Android is bad as well but you can make substantial changes. Beste would be a custom ROM but that’s an extreme change and way
You don’t want to change iOS? You have to get rid of many Apple apps but I guess, it’s not possible.
So remaining: AppleTV, Spotify, Netflix, Amazon, defenitely Discord!, WhatsApp, YouTube, Telegram, definitely HuawaiHealth.
Some of the others I don’t know but I’m sure they should be avoided as well. Use Websites with blockers in browser instead of apps.
That is the least to do or accept beging heavily tracked
Google phone for Graphene is mandatory therefore not my suggestion.
Lineage should not be your alternative as it is not privacy orientated. Take a look at Divest or /e/. There are many supported devices and in terms of privacy much better than Lineage. But in terms of security it is: Divest >> Lineage > /e/
You can check what devices are supported and which suits your needs best
Definitely I would do so in Signal and never Telegram. What a question
Not activated by default. First strike. Cannot be activated in group chats. Second strike.
Saying “it sucks that they decided” sounds like blaming these users.

Not really. You carry arround a Google devices and people notice the brand and devices are more valuable when also desired second hand.
All of this supports Google
It is not. Please educate yourself a bit more. They obviously cannot randomize all data. It is more a besteht effort approach.
They way, they use an old Version of the protocol. No one can review and no audit was done. So we must expect no encryption.
Additionaly, encryption != privacy
Consistent with other apps is going one step back like it is handled now. I don’t know apps acting in another way
"Privacy features, in Firefox, are not meant to be opt-in. " But anti privacy features and user influencing features are. So what’s the point here?
Graphene and Lineage are the most uncomparable custom roms. Have and look at security and privacy and the type of Google Play handling.
See https://eylenburg.github.io/android_comparison.htm to geht a first idea
There are only a few to consider. /e/os if you want it easy or DivestOS if you want it most secure and private. All the other possibilities have disadvantages compared to these.
Please be aware that you should buy FP5 as FP4 has huge hardware issues and the support is a dissapointment. And yes, /e/ is available for FP5 (but not via easy installer, but it’s not hard to flash it yourself)
/e/ is announced as ‘degoogled’ but that’s not 100 % true (and not nearly as well). For example MicroG connects to Google as well as connectivity backup check. Patch level is far behind AOSP. The App Lounge uses clean APK for some apps which is very risky. Communication is a problem and they do not react like they should for example when Mike Kuketz analysed /e/ and found several problems.
The community is huge and they support many devices.
DivestOS is better in most points but is managed by one person alone. MicroG is not included by default (if you need it) and multi sim support is a problem.
Signal, Threema, SimpleX.
Your source is ridiculous. Please educate yourself about more how Signal works.
