  • e/OS/ is often behind on Android monthly security patches by a month or more. Insecure and not very deblobbed of proprietary blobs, especially when compared to GrapheneOS.

  • Distro for a new user

    Jump

  • Fedora KDE edition or OpenSUSE Tumbleweed/Slowroll. Otherwise could try Aurora.

    I avoid Ubuntu base because it is slow to update packages, and the inclusion of Snap packages are a no from me.
