GrapheneOS on a Pixel

• moffkalast 1y ago
  It's kind of ironic that you have to actually give Google money in order to not use Android. I'm still amazed that there's no Graphene support for any other device.

    Graphene is still Android.

      Truly the OS by and for people who are into excessive nitpicking. I suppose that's what you want for security.

        How is that a nitpick? Seems like Graphene is for those who want to have finer-grained control of what Google tracks. You are still funding Google through a hardware purchase (Pixel phone). You are still using Android. And it seems to be a big selling point that you still have access to the (sandboxed) Play Store Apps and services.

    They're in discussions with an OEM to produce their own device.

  Let's see what will the future of Graphene be, since Google is not publishing the device tree anymore for Pixel devices...

    That's a non-issue for them: https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/115299586595207105 https://grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/115299586595207105

      It's not a non-issue i'm sure it's quite annoying to deal with, they just work around it. I hope the deal with their unnamed OEM works out and we get a native GrapheneOS Device. I'd buy it day one.

    They are building their own device trees now.

  Does anyone have a rough estimate for how many installation of GrapheneOS there are?
