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.
I have a pixel. How do I enable this? The only thing I see is an option to warn me when it’s suspected spam. But I don’t see any way to prevent it from ringing.

I guess your other comment didn’t federate to my instance, because there is no other comment by you in this thread. I even checked your profile. Can you link me to it?
My message and a slightly different location said by another user. Hope it helps
Railcar8095 In the phone app: Settings > Caller ID& spam > Filter spam calls
shalafi@lemmy.world You got me in the right place! Phone settings -> Spam and Call Screen -> Call Screen Spam
Oh, call screen? I was afraid that would answer the calls with the Google Assistant and make it so more spammers would call me.
