and some people are ignorant

Thank you. I wouldnt have known this if it wasn’t for this post. I’ve never seen these sites. Good post.

Nostr must be a bigger tree

Thats so wack

Nostr is awesome. I’m hoping it grows much further.

Aurora Store isnt needed because of Graphene’s Sandboxed Google Play Services.

Obtainium app is best for installing APKs from github, fdroid, etc because of the auto updates.

My favorite feature of GOS is the scopes for contacts, storage, and MTE support on Pixel 8

it needs organic stability and you’re also comparing the stability with fiat.

pls buy a new phone lol

Everything should work perfectly fine.

Just make sure you know which apps are not supported on GOS such as Netflix, Hulu, Cash App, etc because of the Play Integrity API. Don’t be afraid to use the Play Store as well. Its treated like any other app on the system so it isn’t highly privileged.

Also, one thing that was a problem for me at first was the restore solution (and backup solution). You will have to transfer your files from an external drive whether its the cloud or a local one.

Feel free to join the GrapheneOS Discord/Matrix/Telegram server and ask more questions because they’re very knowledgeable people that can support you.

I would use Firefox on Android but I’m waiting until the security is on par with Chromium such as having internal sandboxing and site isolation.

Also since Firefox doesn’t have a WebView implementation, it has to be used with the Chromium based one so it doesn’t make sense for me to use two browser engines.

security theater

AOSP does get security updates first because GrapheneOS is based on unmodified AOSP. They are quick to port over updates though and they have extra features like hardened malloc and better user profile support.

Non pixel phones aren’t secure because GrapheneOS doesn’t support them. They aren’t secure because they either don’t have secure elements, broken verified boot, or don’t properly support alternative operating systems. This makes phones like OnePlus, Fairphone, etc not secure enough for GrapheneOS.

DivestOS I would say is the least worst option when it comes to supporting EoL phones. They’re at least honest about what they do and don’t provide unlike what other OSes do. On their website, they tell you they aren’t a secure OS and they can only try their best to reduce harm on an EoL device. DivestOS Security.

The only secure phone operating systems are either grapheneOS or stock. All the others usually are behind security updates.

For migration, I would just use a USB C drive and transfer files.

Please do not tell me you use Mull over Vanadium

Have you tried enabling the Exploit protection compatibility mode on the PF app setting info page?

Passkeys are replacing MFA and passwords.

Element for matrix is actually cheeks

I just use the AOSP messenger. If I used google play services, I would switch to Google messages because of RCS and it looks much nicer.
