If you want a phone, buy a used Pixel, and flash GrapheneOS on it within about 15 minutes. All you do is connect Pixel to computer and use a web browser on computer for Graphene website to flash onto phone. There is no rooting of phone involved.

It's a scam. He clearly has no web development knowledge, the website is very little effort, no maintenance or expansion of the site, and he is not technical at all. When was there any changes to the website brax.me and what changes were they?

To me knowledge, he has never shot a single instructional video. What he says is a mix of what he reads and his opinion, but he has never done a video showing how to do anything shawcasing his skill.

Looking at brax.me, I suspect he is targeting people who only know how to turn on a cell phone and know nothing more than that so that can't find fault with anything he says and hopefully be amazed by his ramblings.

He is only about getting free money, he has no skills to teach and educate others how to do. He charges for services that others give for free. Such as the 4GB storage limit, multple Nextcloud sites provide free 10GB storage. He's trying to make money without working.

You can do that too, use an Android VM. Whichever way works best or works easiest for you.

I use Whatsapp in that exact scenario that you are describing. It's an old Android phone connected to wi-fi and the phone is never touched for anything outside of Whatsapp.

Having it setup that way, or for you with FB/IG, if there is no SIM in the phone, do not install anything else, no contacts in phone, you can effectively use it anonymously.

I suggest you use an Android phone so you can download APK files to install, disable Play Store and similar network services, and maybe once a month download the lastest APK and install to update it. I do that for Whatsapp or updating since I have all Google services disabled on the phone.

Voyager is on both platforms, Jebora is only for Android, both are pure open source so you have full privacy and anonymity.
