I mean, exactly how invasive are default operating systems? (Like Windows, Mac, Chrome OS, Android, iOS) Do they log your keystrokes, log passwords, capture screen, upload your photos, videos, or audio? (Assuming you aren’t a target of government) Is it even possible for the average person who doesn’t feel comfortable messing with installing operating systems to have any privacy?
Idk if this is helpful but as someone that had issues with BT in Linux, I found it was a combination of my computer AND the device both had issues. On a separate laptop and a separate set of headphones it worked perfectly from jump. This was on kubuntu.
