Hi. I know the most privacy-oriented (and best-working) phone OS is GrapheneOS, but I was wondering about other, less well-known ones, such as VollaOS (modified Android), Sailfish OS or Ubuntu Touch. Are they private? Do they work? Can I run Android applications on them (VollaOS and SailfishOS) without too much effort? I like using Linux, but I rely on many Android apps, such as navigation, mobile banking, the Garmin app, and many others. Do you have any experience with these operating systems?
I talked about continuing to make money , after they sell the device. It’s usually just more profitable for a company to not respect their users.
Most companies, if not all, can probably sustain one time payments, but investors prefer growth.
I wonder whether mobile device manufacturers get a cut from Google’s spyware revenue.
