/e/ greatly reduces security vs. AOSP via added attack surface, weakened security model and slow patches.

Damn. That's such a shame, I was considering the fairphone with /e/ os but it's looking less and less appealing. I guess flashing it with CalyxOS and removing/replacing microg might be the better option. Either that or bite the bullet and get a pixel n' flash GrapheneOS to it.
I deeply aplreciate your expansion on the matter :)
GrapheneOS is the best option we have today.
Don't forget to donate to the project.

Even at the cost of using a Google phone? In any case if I decide to go with it I'll be sure to donate match the price of whichever pixel I end up with ty :)
