Hello Pine community, I'm a linux newbie and was wondering if there are certain mobile Linux OSes that are more secure than others? From reading various posts on reddit I've come across some saying Ubuntu Touch is secure because of the apps being isolated from each other, and being able to choose app permissions. Is that not the case for other mobile OSes? It looks like Mobian is the preferred OS for Pinephone for many people right now because of stability/usability. How is it as far as security? I'm trying to learn Linux for privacy and security reasons, and wanting to get away from the Apple/Google duopoly and am happy to support the free/libre philosophy. Can you explain to me how each mobile distro differs in security, or point to resources I can dive into? Thank you
