I wouldn’t trust it to handle anything sensitive, but that doesn’t make it useless. If you can unlock the bootloader and swap in a different rom, that usually solves any problems security wise, as long as there’s a recent enough rom available. And even without that, the risks involved aren’t 100%, and can be mitigated to some degree.
On a security level, yeah, obviously.
On a day to day level, no

This. I’d avoid using it for banking or access to a Gmail account that is registered with your bank. Or receiving 2FA texts.
But scrolling Lemmy and making calls? It’s probably fine.
So not a primary device.
Make it your secondary phone for the shawtys.
Thank you for the info. I’ll see if I can install a different OS
