I hate all mobile operating systems because none of them is able to provide me the level of control I have on my Linux desktops and laptops.
But there’s nothing I can do about that, so, at least, I bought the best phone on the market - S23 Ultra. It’s a lovely device, I just dislike Google. Thinking of de-googling it somehow. F-Droid and Galaxy Store can work as Play Store replacement but I still need Google Pay and so on :/
If you are willing to buy a pixel from a store that resells them you’d evade paying google. You can get GrapheneOS which IS a very secure OS … They have a feature called Sandboxes Google Play which is compatible with overwhelming majority of apps compared to MicroG. I think you’d really like what grapheneOS has to offer
Please know that Sandboxed Google Play does not use any additional privileges and makes googles apps run in sandbox like any random app you install would.

If only Ubuntu Phone wasn’t canceled.
