Is Rooting still as essential as it used to be? by DataDreadnought in c/android@lemmy.world

Rooting is more security compromising than it's worth. There are a small set of use cases I could see but for the most part do either or below.

If you have a Pixel you would want to run GrapheneOS for maximum security and privacy.

All other phones you would ADB remove bloatware, run PrivateDNS with NextDNS or an alternative, and turn off as much analytics/permission/features as possible for a functional phone.

If only they had the same titan chip as the Pixel so I could use GrapheneOS on it.

Don't understand how they made it this long.
