Check out Louis Rossmanns video about them. A rather shady company.

Let’s not forget now that Purism is a scam. Librem 5 is a joke.

I don’t know anyone who uses whatsapp in my friend group lol… Tbf noone uses anything privacy related either so I know I’d never use whatsapp, looks like it’s straight from 2012

What UI decisions? My Firefox looks just fine. Also don’t use Ghostery or Privcy Badger, Firefox on strict mode with uBlock Origin is more than enough for most folks. If it’s not enough for you though, check out Cromite or Mull browsers.

Don’t even need Privacy Badger nowadays, uBlock origin does it all.

I’ve had my account for about 2 years. During that time I’ve collected 14 pages of emails, each page has 50 emails and some are even stacked emails from the same sender. All of this takes up about 32MB of said 1GB so space in the free tier is definitely not an issue for just emails haha.

Can not tell if this is satire or not because while Windows has its fair share of issues, I’ve yet to encounter something that I couldn’t fix. Every time I’ve installed windows it just worked. People keep whining about windows being just absolute dogshit and then there’s me who has never understood that shit because windows just keeps working like it should. And I install windows frequently enough to know/notice if anything is wrong. Like how can’t you get steam to start? You must be doing sth wrong… Idk man i just can’t relate like at all… Wish I could help instead.

(okay i lied where i said “I’ve yet to encounter something that I couldn’t fix”. There’s this annoying little shit bug that recently cropped up where my 2 desktop icons in the top left get moved when i move a file to for example the middle of my desktop. One of 3 things happens: it puts it where i wanted it to in the middle OR it puts it IN THE TOP LEFT CORNER which moves my icons down one OR it puts it BETWEEN the two icons i have there. AND best of all IT DOESN’T EVEN STAY THERE it like is there for just a second and then it flicks to wherever i wanted it in the first place, leaving my icons MOVED from where they originally were GOD I HATE THIS SO MUCH oh and I also hate how windows handles file transfers of any kind.)

From ente Authenticator launch blog post, they do state it is open-source.

My recommendation is to stay away from the auth services that are account based such as ente or bitwarden UNLESS you have a 2nd method of authentication such as a yubikey. Why? Because you obviously can’t store, for example, your bitwarden 2FA code in your bitwarden vault. Same with ente. That’s why on android I use Authenticator Pro, as it isn’t account based and has great backup options, such as backing up to cloud and file encryption. Not sure what an equivalent would be on iOS but I’d definitely want to find out! Bonus points if it’s available on both iOS and Android.

Due to the size constraints, there’s not much to recommend (I am currently typing this on an iphone 7 lols). Since you mentioned GrapheneOS, which can only be installed on Pixel devices, I’d recommend the Pixel 7a. It’s definitely bigger than an iPhone 7, but it is the newest Pixel device. To get a phone that’s smaller that supports Graphene, I’d have to recommend a Pixel 5a instead. It’s older but closer to the size you wish for. Pick your poison.
