Funny, the comment types here are the same as on Youtube:
- “I still run Android and it is totally fine, will never switch Android just got worse!”
- “Well, money”
- “Companies need to support phones longer”
- “I just use LineageOS on that device”
- Misinformation
I doubt it as the Android security model is actually pretty good. It isn’t immune but neither is anything else. It is all about least privilege. There is no root so the worse case is you just uninstall something manually.
Yes Android is way more secure than any random Linux distro. But you can still get hacked.
