I previously used GrapheneOS and it can definietly do what you are asking - under the permissions setting.

I would recommend not using the google services (even sandboxed) and use droid-ify as an alternative to download apps.

I would remove all of the commands and see if the issue persists.

If it fixes it, add each command one by one until you find whats causing the issue.

If it doesnt fix it, at least you can rule that out.

“found dead in his car outside Moscow with a gunshot wound and the principal hypothesis is that he took his own life, state investigators said on Monday, hours after President Vladimir Putin fired him.”

🤔

That last paragraph is nothing but defeatism

Aves Libre Is also a great alternative

www.protondb.com is a good resource to see whats working for other people

agreed
