Hi guys I was thinking of installing either Calyx OS or Graphene OS on Pixel 7 I got from secondhand.

Meanwhile I was also wondering which one of these is most private but also best usable; Aurora Store or Google Play Mirror (Graphene OS) or Micro G?

Edit; Thanks for all info guys. I will take it into consideration and probably always first use F-Droid and web apps.

    Aurora Store is 3rd party client for Google Play Store while MicroG is open source implementation of Google libraries so they are not quite comparable.

    I’d say MicroG with Aurora Store is most private you can be if you really need to use Google services. You can use Aurora Store with anonymous Google Account that they provide you and MicroG is only sharing necessary data with Google servers.
