So, I’m looking to maybe possibly use a more secure OS for my phone, and I’m torn between these two. I’m mainly looking at Privacy for my main concern, though security never hurts obviously, and also app compatibility and ease of use. I’m also considering a Fairphone for my next phone down the line, and I’d probably have to go with /e/OS for that, so would it be worth it to just go with that now? Or change later?

    If its any consolation, Calyx Chromium (Chromium that’s included with CalyxOS) is a de-googled fork with patches from Cromite (and before that from Bromite). IIRC its because Gecko based browsers don’t have as good compatibility, so they went with a Chromium base for their browser

      Yeah but they could add it to the menu where you chose what apps to install, so I can decide not to have it(they could also add a warning if you don’t have any browser).
