so Android is mostly developed by google so I assume it also sends a lot of data over to google. Is there an OS that's privacy respecting?

If only it wasn't developed by a complete psycho. Even Louis Rossman couldn't handle it, and he ended up refusing to use GrapheneOS because he couldn't trust someone who is so unhinged with the privacy and security of his personal device.

I'm not saying I hate GrapheneOS, I actually use it currently, but it's a good point to bring up.

strcat is the lead developer of the project, he isn't going anywhere unfortunately. If he leaves the project dies with him I'd assume (unless of course someone has the knowledge to fork it)

No, he's handing over and has stepped down.
