Sad news - I have been very happy with CalyxOS, and not sure if I would want to continue using it without security updates or move to another ROM on my Fairphone 4. It seems perhaps that I would anyway need to reflash when they get to the point of resuming updates? Anyone get a clearer reading on that than me?
I have been contemplating trying out Ubuntu Touch which has according to their site 100% compatability with Fairphone 4 now, but there are some functionality that I think would struggle without, and if I can’t get it working as I want, I wouldn’t be able to reflash CalyxOS now. Getting a new phone to install GrapheneOS is not an option for me.
What are other people here using CalyxOS going to do to maintain a modicum of privacy on their mobile devices?

I’m already hosting my own PiHole and using Quad9 as my upstream, so I have DNS filters already in place. Some apps however if you use a restrictive DNS will just use Google DNS all on their own, so I like having the option to just disable network connectivity altogether for apps that don’t need it.
