Just installed GOS on my phone, really like it. I want to know how GOS users setup their profiles to learn from them. So far, i found out the followings:

  1. everything in Owner

  2. leave Owner blank. Put everything in another profile names User.

  3. leave Owner blank. Put all Google stuff in user Google. Put all FOSS app in FOSS user. Put all bank stuff under Sensitive user.

  4. use Owner as an app repo. So install Google Play, Acrescent, Fdroid. Install apps from there, but dont use them. Instead, when create new user, push those apps from Owner. This is similar to Side of Burritos on Youtube.

anything different?

I usually listen to radio while driving, I am kinda old school there.

Also, I think having some commercial service like Spotify or TuneIn track my taste in music, radio stations or podcasts is an invasion of my privacy. I actually selfhost an internet radio service if you wanna call it that by running a DVB-C tuner on my homeserver that grabs my favorite channels from my cable provider and streams them to my phone on demand if I wanna listen to radio on the go.
