I really should stop just doing stuff. You can disable enough things on #Android to require a factory reset. Even without root.
I thought it was a read only filesystem and if I broke it the phone would just use the defaults.
I use TrackerControl on my kindle to try to keep things under control.
It's an ugly battle.
In contrast, using a de-googled android OS like #CalyxOS is so stinking pleasant.
I'll eventually try something like #CalyxOS, #LineageOS or #GrapheneOS.
And thanks for the recommendation, I just found #NextDNS too. Put that on my router to see how it works with the Roku in addition to my phone.
Getting there slowly but surely. Posteo email, nextdns, looking into nextcloud for photos.
@RL_Dane@fosstodon.orgI've been using 1.1.1.1 and 1.1.1.3 for the longest time, but NextDNS looks pretty cool.
If you get a Pixel phone, #CalyxOS is very beginner-friendly. Well, the install process isn't as beginner-friendly as #GrapheneOS' web installer, but it's still pretty easy. Download the win/lin/mac executable and run it with your phone connected, follow the prompts.
Just make sure you have ~4GB space in /tmp for staging.
(I usually have to comment /tmp tmpfs from fstab when installing calyx)
