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.

Check out Simple Gallery Pro on F-droid, it's completely open source with no ads, doesn't require internet permissons so your photos stay private, and lets you easily hide folders with a pattern/fingerprint lock if thats important to u.

FYI, you should switch from Simple to Fossify.
