/e/OS changes the connectivity check from Google to their own server, great, but then it still connects to Google services via microG. So why bother changing the connectivity check?
> Chromium updates
Your comment was recommending an operating system that is actively harmful to its users by falling behind basic security updates that every single other OS has done.
edit: aside from that, what are your thoughts on their upcoming license key system for OTAs that give users a persistent identifier? https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/os/android_packages_apps_Updater/uploads/bb0e5656df992b3717d4df9c71ebf39e/Screenshot_20230713_121140.png https://gitlab.e.foundation/e/os/android_packages_apps_Updat...

So you actually do agree that /e/OS changes the connectivity check, don't you? > Your comment was recommending an operating system Not at all. My comment was mentioning that at least some custom ROMs I know do remove the connectivity check, which is the topic of that post ("Changing the Android captive portal page"). In that particular post, I did not recommend /e/OS, I just stated a fact. But if it's about recommendation, I would recommend against DivestOS, because the author is really toxic. That may be harmful to users, too.
