No, you're maliciously extending my words about some vendors to all vendors. In the comment about issues with software and hardware, that somehow is being painted as GrapheneOS fault, I mentioned (among other things) hardware hostile t

You're not engaging with my words but you're instead twisting them. I'll stop wasting my time on you.

Fairphone? Delayed patches (they don't keep up with AOSP), missing secure element (makes disk encryption key cracking trivial in comparison). Fairphone 6/6+ (the latest), is based on..... It's pretty hard to find the Android

If the bootloader cannot be unlocked, relocked, or doesn't provide timely updates to firmware/hardware, it's hostile. The rest is not (might be lazy, insecure or just silly but not hostile) It's surprising some vendors s

So you're saying that being unable to prove the provenance of the image (whether it's original or not), becoming immediately exposed to downgrade attack, to someone injecting malware to /sys and you being unable to detect it.

OK, I'm confused, explain how they can deliver comparable security on a hardware that does not offer the same capabilities, from a vendor who doesn't provide patches. You say they can. How?

If the hardware security is on par with iPhone / pixel 8+, then sure. Otherwise there's no need for NSA backdoors (as Cellebrite matrix shows) :)

Because it's much worse (for me). However at this point, as a GrapheneOS user if I couldn't use it for any reason I'll go to iOS (even though I used it for a couple of years and I've been fed up).

They can't due to the shortcomings of the hardware (why develop a hardened os to the grossly insecure hardware) or the vendor (no/slow updates, etc). Anyone is free to fork, add the desired hardware support and flash. (that's

Apple, cherry or plum seeds are very yummy, and match the taste profile of the fruits perfectly. Sure I wouldn't eat a handful but several are not a big deal and given their taste I usually do that. "They don't taste good&quo

Same, they never asked for a selfie back then. Try opening one now. Today it's hard to get a hire purchase contract as an existing custoner (already known and verified) without photos of the ID and selfie.

You could say that. The lack of root is only significant because unlike in other vendors the built-in backup doesn't work reliably, and you can't use third party software. But I'm very hopeful, recently they released this Mes

Currently only Google Messages supports RCS indeed, so Messages is not a replacement yet. Personally I don't need RCS so I simply use Textra since forever as it's far better than Messages, but lack of backup is impacting everyone

You're right, this is not a solution. And I'm syncing some of the app data already, but that is not a replacement for the OS apps. Most of the data cannot be synced like this.
