      How’s the security/privacy? I don’t expect it to be as good as Graphene, but I’m not interested in buying a Google phone.

      Is it good enough that I won’t have to worry about it? Any uses I should avoid on e/os?

        Just make sure you can relock the bootloader after you install the e/os ROM or anyone with a USB cable can do as they please with your phones OS. AFAIK that feature is limited to pixel phones and some fair phones, so your options are a bit slim.
