Hey everyone, I’m still pretty new to using my GrapheneOS phone and have been slowly transitioning to a more privacy oriented technology lineup than I previously did.
I searched for clients on Google and found “Total Adblock”, “Adblock”, and “Adblock Plus” but I’m not quite sure how to audit an adblocker for security flaws or malicious intent. I also would prefer to install apps through the F-Droid store and learn how to compile from source code on mobile (if that’s possible on GrapheneOS or if that’s even something desirable)
Thanks for any help! Been lurking a lot on Lemmy and have really enjoyed the energy in the community. Definitely has made learning Linux and the countless times I’ve had to fix my Arch system much more enjoyable. GrapheneOS has been quite stable too other than the phone having interfacing problems with my cellular provider’s network…
Is there a reason you recommend forks of Firefox rather than the official version with the same add-ons enabled? Firefox already has support for Ublock and will have full desktop add-on support soon.
Has all the telemetry and analytics crap removed, and I know if they ever add more in the future that it’ll automatically be patched out in the fork I use. Besides that, it’s the exact same experience. Even Firefox Sync works which I use.
On top of that, it’s available on f-droid so it doesn’t rely on Google Play at all, which is very important if you’re trying to minimize Google stuff on your phone.
