I broke my phone a few months ago and I hadn’t use a phone since I didn’t need it until now. I’m willing to buy one that’s around under 500$. I’m thinking of getting google pixel maybe, any recommendations?

    I just bought a used iPhone SE 2020 for 300€. The screen of my old Pixel 2 broke and its support ran out recently. Still a great phone otherwise. As a long-term Android user I miss a few things like SyncThing on iOS. However, with a strong focus on privacy, I’d say iOS wins over Android.

      If you mean privacy marketing, yes iOS wins over Android. For privacy, security and freedom (by extension anonymity), Android is infinitely superior to iOS in every measure.

        If you install a de-Googled ROM, which you should.

          De-corped ROM is definitely superior, but the smartphone guide does well for non root phones almost just as well, from my experience with custom ROMs. Either should be done by all users for a libre pro privacy culture.
