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.

Might want to consider switching the camera application too. On my fairphone the default one started making every photo just black. Fortunately i noticed it soon enough. Also the open camera i got from f-droid is much better with actual settings and options. Now i can do even exposure bracketing or panorama pictures.
