ubuntu-touch VS privacyguides.org

Ubuntu Touch, for example, does not support Full Disk Encryption, when Android has moved on from Full Disk Encryption to File-Based Encryption. Android utilises SELinux in enforcing mode for Mandatory Access Control even for root/superuser processes. Sandboxing with Flatpak cannot compare to the OS-level app sandboxing done on Android and iOS. Permission management on Flatpak is good, but still not as advanced as Android or iOS. On phones, (real) Linux is quite easily outclassed in security when compared to Android.

It still uses many of the Android components via Halium on traditional Android devices which end up unpatched and for devices not with a mainline kernel use outdated vendor kernels. https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/1566

I'd suggest taking a look at contributing to existing efforts like UBPorts

Ubuntu Touch doesn't even have encryption and ships kernels with many known security issues: https://github.com/ubports/ubuntu-touch/issues/178

Fyi, the project isn't dead, it is just not developed by Canonical anymore: https://ubports.com/

There is already Ubport https://ubports.com/ project that is supporting Ubuntu for smartphones and guides you to compile debian with all the phone functionalities. Some parts of modem abstraction layer on the Linux (below radio Interface layer) will still be not openesource and i would say it won't be easy to get this source.

Look for an extension that changes your user agent. For instance, if you're using Firefox, it can tell fool the server you're talking to into believing that you're actually on an iPhone running Safari. I can't vouch for any that you should trust so you might want to run any that you find past more knowledgeable people before you trust it. Rabbit hole 👉 https://www.privacyguides.org/

I highly recommend using https://www.privacyguides.org and actually avoiding PrivacyTools all together. PrivacyGuides is essentially the successor the PrivacyTools, with the entire former team behind PrivacyTools founding and running PrivacyGuides. You can read about the history and founding of PrivacyGuides here if you're interested.

We've had a Discourse forum for a while, and actually replaced all links to Reddit with links to Discourse a few months ago.

NextCloud: I intend to use Nextcloud as a Google Drive alternative anyway, and it seems to retain the photo and video structure of my phone gallery. However, I've read conflicting information about its end-to-end encryption, with sources like privacyguides.org stating that its E2EE app isn't production quality and may lead to data loss.
