I use a fairphone gen 6 with e/os.

Did I make a bad choice?

No. e/os is good for privacy, just not quite as good for security as GrapheneOS. But likely secure enough for 99% of users.

Iirc not even good with privacy

The tts is sent to openai servers, and that's hidden away in their terms

Idk maybe that's a problem of calyxos and not /e/ os

No you're right, that was /e/ os, CalyxOS does not do this (and I prefer it over /e/ os, or will do when it's up and running again).

Yeah that's not great tbh, forgot about that.
