Quite satisfied with Brave Search.

Whoa, I thought I’d be the only one mentioning Brave. Clearly, I was gravely mistaken.

LibreWolf/Mull/Fennec, and BraveSearch/Whoogle/DDG.

I think you *should* think about moving to more FOSS-friendly OSes, but in time, down the line, not this instant. Maybe the next devices you’ll own, or when you feel ready, comfortable, with privacy; anyway, GL!

E: wording

Other awesome FOSS (Free and Open-Source Software) lists for your other OSes (computer/tablet).

I’d start small, a lot of people would tell you to do some drastic changes to you life, but, like every other thing you have in life, start small, or you’ll might fail.

I’d suggest starting here.

Shelter is better, BTW; but Insular is good option too.

If you don’t want Google *device* you could get any other device supported by LOS but is means no official GOS on your phone.

To update your Play Store apps you can use Aurora Store (notice that Aurora *Droid* is completely different app).

Banking apps work great on second profile (user), you can use Shelter/Insular (accessible from the main user), or Android’s ‘Multiple Users’ (which means to switch user).

E: double space

OP, CentOS and CentOS Steam are two *very* different beasts, you don’t want Stream.

I wouldn’t go for CentOS either because you’ll have to replace it anyway.

I’m mentioning that because you can download the old CentOS, but like the commenter above me said, you can do Alma or Rocky.

I would go for Debian, but that’s a personal preference.
