I have just received a Samsung galaxy fold5 through the post, however I imagine it’s full of bloatware and I’m inexperienced with this type of device. What is the first things that you would do to secure it? Thank you 😊

Edit: I mean to be more privacy focused

    Google play services constantly send information to google, the only functional and degoogled rom Ive found is Grapheneos.

        The real downside of brave is the cryptocrap. It is still optional. However the fact that it support the chromium monopoly is also a bad point.

            If you don’t install software made from people that are not align with your ethics there are probably more than just brave.

      Samsung locks their bootloader, so flashing is neigh impossible on them as of late.

        Good to know, although I’m unsure how a custom boot would handle the folding display
