Just installed GOS on my phone, really like it. I want to know how GOS users setup their profiles to learn from them. So far, i found out the followings:

everything in Owner
leave Owner blank. Put everything in another profile names User.
leave Owner blank. Put all Google stuff in user Google. Put all FOSS app in FOSS user. Put all bank stuff under Sensitive user.
use Owner as an app repo. So install Google Play, Acrescent, Fdroid. Install apps from there, but dont use them. Instead, when create new user, push those apps from Owner. This is similar to Side of Burritos on Youtube.

anything different?

This thread is illuminating and makes my GOS use feel very pedestrian. I just use a single profile, I keep everything off my default and only enable what I need when I need it (GPS for instance which is rare) and then disable again, and I have no accounts logged in to anything on my phone.
