Does anyone know how /e/os compares to graphene os for privacy? I am thinking of getting a murena fairphone which comes with /e/os but supports custom OSs and am leaning towards graphene, but don't know much about e.

I ran /e/os on my Fairphone 4 for a while. Wasn't a fan of the clearly iOS-inspired launcher or the outdated Android version, so I switched to Iodé, which delivers a more Android-y experience. The built-in, system-wide ad-blocker is great, but recently they added a "premium" model that allows for more rigorous blocking. I'm not sure how I feel about it.
You could also take a look at Ubuntu touch, which updated about a month ago, with improved support for the Fairphone 4.
