I've used Graphene OS for years, but only recently started taking advantage of the profiles feature.

Currently the Owner profile that you log into on first boot is my main profile, and I have a secondary decoy profile that I can switch to. Is this the best way to do this, or should it be the other way around so that on first boot you go into the decoy, which also allows you to end the session of the main profile?

Unless you have a reason to, I wouldn't recommend a secondary profile as a daily driver yet. SMS doesn't work perfectly and plenty of other bugs I've noticed which sometimes you have to switch to the Owner profile to access certain things, and sometimes things just don't work in secondary profiles.

That being said, I've made it work. If you have a reason to use this threat model then do it.
