I dont like what samsung is doing and it seems like their gallery app is likely stealing all my photo data to train ai. Whats a good foss alternative and how can I disable all that shit?

Fuck samsung. Getting rid of this phone soon.

I have an s23 so its pretty locked down from f droid I think...unsure.

F droid is totally usable. Simply download and install the APK from their website and allow installation from unknown sources when prompted.

Unfortunately, e/OS or other Android roms are off the table as the bootloaders are locked (at least in my country they are, someone can correct me if that's not the case worldwide).
