Ash HN: My country is undergoing a coup, which encryption software should I use?
Use briar. Use LineageOS without gapps (aka without Google Play Services). Obviously don't use Meta or Google apps, because that's where the backdoors are for governments. Use AppWarden to enable/disable/verify the usage of known trackers in your apps. Use NetGuard as an Android firewall.

What if I have two phones? One for real life use, one for social media?
Now is it possible to use different devices and not be identified? yes.. But it takes work.You need to isolate the device and cut off every connection it has to Facebook, including system level apps. If you're using an Android a quick look at the "new phone" after installing Netguard will show you that many default apps make connections to Facebook. Source: 10 months ago

Best way to use Facebook Messenger?
You might want to look at Frost and SlimSocial, and aside from that maybe run some custom DNS to filter out anything that doesn't break functionality using hosts lists. There are several options there, one is Rethink DNS. Source: over 1 year ago
Local alternative to NextDns?
Yes, read through their goals at https://rethinkdns.com/ and ask any questions you have in their sub, the developers are active in it. Source: over 1 year ago
