Ive just startee getting into privacy, but i had a few questions.
- I havent switched operating system yet due to fear of losing my data. I have a lot of pictures, contacts and messages i dont want to go missing. I have a one plus and i really love it. I do not want a pixel phone. Is there a way i can maintain privacy without changing phones?
- If i delete google play services, will my phone not work correctly?
- I have been replacing my apps with open source apps, is that helpful?
- What vpn should i use? I have malewarebytes.
probably beause sometimes, they sneak in stuff we may not want with updates. totally understand where hes coming from.
every few months, every few days, or every other day. depends on device.
updating every few months or so is good enough for most people. alternative, open source software wont really come with garbage anyway, so no big deal.
Yep thats why my windows taskbar doesnt hide anymore. They messed it up on one of the updates. So frustrating.
Makes sense. I do want to try the open source software! People say graphene is the best but im not buying a pixel when i love my one plus. And the way people say the battery life is digusting🤣🤣 Linegage ive heard good things about. But they dont have one for my oneplus device. And im afraid of not having my shit backed up. I just want to try degoogling without resetting my device!
