Hi All,

So I have a fold 4, and its my main device however, I purchased this before I started looking into privacy related stuff, and I’m not in a situation to change to a Pixel at the moment.  
I know Samsung isn’t great for privacy but I was looking at what steps I could take to reduce the privacy issues with this device?

I was thinking of formatting it, then not signing into either Play store or Samsung account as a start, then using Droidify and Aurora to install the apps I need (replacing most with FOSS), and disabling standard apps that come with the phone.

Is there anything else I’m potentially missing?

Thanks
