Just switched to a new phone carrier, and they had a promotion that included a free phone: the Google Pixel 8. I’m not a fan of Google, but I am a fan of free, so I took the bait.
It’s already bombarded me with pitches for their new AI bullshit. I’ve opted out of as much as the settings allow, but I’m under no illusion that doing so actually provides any real privacy.
So, damage control time.
On my previous device I used YouTube Vanced for music and videos, but I guess Vanced isn’t around anymore, and I’m pretty out of date on what the current options are… any insight on streaming specifically?

Thanks all!
That is interesting to hear, why do you think so?
I agree that graphene is the easiest. Because you can install the Google subsystem in the work profile, everything will just work there no problems. It’s very clear what you’re doing, and what has access to what.
Because when you start graphing you have nothing on your phone, everything you install becomes a deliberate choice. So it’s very very very simple, oh I need a web browser I’m going to choose a web browser etc.
As alredy mentioned, but also install wise , very easy compared to installing twrp and Micro-g etc. Also Installing GOS and sandboxed playstore in main profile, hand it to someone completely oblivious and they will have no problems using it as they would normally do on stock. Learning to use it in separate profiles is just a matter of getting used to it.
