    Is the pinephone worth it or is it better to just get a custom ROM on my Samsung phone?

    I have been thinking of improving my security as I am trying to escape the botnet as well as learn some stuff in the process. I was thinking of getting a pinephone but it'll be a while until I can get it and there's no guarantee, so should I just install a custom ROM or just root my current phone?

    If you're okay with a less powerful phone, try PinePhone. If you want a stable, everyday phone with improved privacy, go for a custom ROM on your Samsung.

      Well, I guess getting a custom ROM seems to be a bit of a better option here. I'll have de-google my phone and do some stuff, but if I manage to get it to work, then I think it should be worth it. Thanks1
