Glad to see an updated version!
And glad to see FUTO keyboard on there as well.

For 2FA apps I always now recommend @ente . it's open source. it's a good looking app. and works perfectly. with backup even !

For search there's also
@kagihq
and they offer a very good translation service as well: translate.kagi.com/

(btw, stupid ocd thing: the bottom right, it's actually 'origanic maps' not 'organic map' xd)

Striving for privacy and leaving an ecosystem that locks our data is what is all about. Avoiding to be locked into another one (beeing an app or else) is critical. I hope Tuta bring the options (for people with threat models that allows it) for SMTP bridge and calendar sharing via standardised interfaces (caldav...) in the future. Or else Tuta will have solved only half of the problem (privacy) while maintaining an artificial lock-in in their app.

/e/OS, LineageOS, and CalyxOS all decrease security and therefore harm privacy relative to base AOSP. GrapheneOS is the only one of those that improves on both. The "privacy improvements" for CalyxOS are just preinstalled apps.
GrapheneOS is not supported by devices other than Pixels.

The recommendation for many Firefox based browsers is also harmful to security and privacy. Firefox has much weaker site isolation and security than most Chromium forks.

for european options, there's also Framasoft and their Google-like tools !

You shouldn't be recommending LineageOS nor /e/OS. LineageOS isn't security or privacy focused while /e/OS is slow to provide security updates for system components and has unreliable and un-audited online services. GrapheneOS is the only good option here

started using OsmAnd recently since I switched to GrapheneOS and it's pretty solid. I'm satisfied with it.

Since GrapheneOS doesn't seem to come with text to speech support OOTB, I am using RHVoice. f-droid.org/packages/com.githu…

From the question I can not judge whether what you are planning to do is illegal under German law or not (probably not, but I'm not a legal expert). In any case, you can check what data we have and what we can hand out - which we only do if we receive a court order from a German judge: tuta.com/blog/transparency-rep…
