As native Moscovite, I can confirm that I’ve already scalped 3 Wagnerites and one very confused German composer.
Sir, this is the a noncredible Wendy’s, not a Credible Outback Steakhouse.
I was, then I wasn’t, but only because my Reddit is curated with over a decade of finding the subs I like.
However, I’m still slowly trying to find and curate my Lemmy experience, which I expect will pickup even more steam once 3rd Party API’s get shut down the end of this month.
It’s not even just a matter of principle, the Reddit official app is terrible, which is almost funny since I loved AlienBlue.

Rooting can harm the security of your device, significantly.
I understand you’re wanting to root for privacy reasons, and I’m not saying you should never root, just understand the risks.
Instead, I’d suggest keeping your Pixel and installing GrapheneOS.
Or, find another phone that is supported by DivestOS.
Both of those ROMs are privacy and security hardened and relock your bootloader for a secure boot.
You just answered your own question. How many users click approve without thinking? How many install Xposed modules that intentionally, or unintentionally, create security issues?
I didn’t say rooting will break your security, just that it can. Rooting exponentially increasing the attack surface, which for some users isn’t a concern, but for your average user, it probably should be.
In this case, this person wanted to increase his privacy, which is why I recommended what I did.
Also, FWIW, there’s a reason why GrapheneOS and DivestOS specifically design their ROMS to NOT be rooted and to RELOCK the bootloader.
