What are some simple things i can do while using an android phone to maintain some privacy? Been thinking about this since seeing a thread on favorite foss apps. I currently use duckduckgo browser with their tracking deterrent vpn and simple keyboard. Thanks in advance

    Thank you for the idea. However, it looks like my device isn’t supported. Also, not really looking to go that far. Would doing things like disabling search and location history be effective at all? Other simple steps?

      Every little step helps

      The worry with some of the privacy toggles in the platform itself is that it might not actually affect what the company collects or uses. So if you can swap an app with a FOSS one, it makes a bigger difference. A chunk of the FOSS apps are better anyways so 🤷
