I’m currently using GrapheneOS and I quite like it, but I would like to switch to something else. Will I lose much privacy if I switch to e/OS? Can I lock bootloader after flashing it like on GrapheneOS? I’m using Pixel 7 btw

    Were you using the Google espionage services on GOS? If so, you’d likely gain a little privacy because of µG.

    Some devices can lock the bootloader but that’s not a generally supported feature on /e/OS.

      What? Please stop spreading misinformation.

      /e/ includes microG per default and thus calls google servers. /e/ includes unique identifyer per update call tracking its users. Graphene uses several proxy servers to hide user information, /e/ does not in similar way. And so on…
