Spam calls and texts are driving me fing crazy anyone have suggestions?
After repeated data breaches that no company really seems to give a s--- about my phone is blowing up with literally hundreds of spam calls and texts month. I get and make MAAAAYBE 2 or 3 important calls per month, 180-200 of the rest are literally all spam. Anyone have any suggestions, apps ect that they have found refuge with? I really don't use SMS that much either, mostly it's via signal, discord whats app, ect...
Just to put it out there I run CalyxOS on a Pixel 5a.

That's not how it works. If the number rings at all, it's in service. They know your number is valid before you even pick up.
That's not how that works. Maybe you don't understand how these call centers work. These days it's usually a bot dialing a list of numbers and flagging any with a person answering as one for a real person to call to sell/scam/whatever.
I'm hoping for your sake that you are just being pedantic and hyperfocusing on my verbiage instead of the overall message.
