Im considering buying a new phone and i don’t really consider a Pixel. I really like Fairphones approach, with the self repairable stuff. Even though they don‘t have a headphone jack. But well… I can’t change it. I’ll definitely go with the adapter over wireless headphones.
But to my question: What private OSes are there? Fairphone sells FP4s with eOS, how is that? And does it work on the FP5? GrapheneOS only works on Google Pixels right?

What about de-googled android? Is that private/secure?
No given the recent Cellebrite leak. You’re only secure if you use Pixel 6 and after, stock or GOS.
Of course that mostly only apply if you put government into your threat model.
That’s a threat to any device. Also the pixel scored way better than many other devices
