1,000 times this. Rot in hell.

Clearly your question was honest and well intentioned, but without meaning to, you’ve stumbled into what must be one of the most pointless and mean spirited online security debates. That is the online wars between GOS, /e/ and LineageOS supporters - although to be fair, that is mostly hate coming from the GOS camp to everyone else.

ANY of the 3 - GOS, /e/ or LineageOS is LIGHT YEARS ahead of stock Android for privacy. Each have their pros and cons - what’s best for YOU depends on your own personal situation (TARA model).

I’ve worked in Dubai and had the opportunity to drive with a local to Muscat. It was interesting, but . . . only because he was local and knew a few cool beaches and inlets to stop into on the drive. If I had been doing that drive alone . . well, you nailed it in your OP. Oman is rather . . sparse. And as for Muscat itself . . well, in a region with Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Doha & Bahrain . . . its hard to justify as a top 10 tourist destination.

tl;dr: Glad a saw it . . I won’t go out of my way to see it again.

You mean a convicted rapist and frequent flyer on Epstein’s pedo jet doesn’t have the best instincts? Shocked . . shocked I tell you.
