I went Graphene a while back and can’t be happier with it.
I’d still love to see a real Linux phone that really works and really has native Signal/etc apps but since buying a pinephone years ago to tinker with it, I’m not holding my breath.
If anyone here has fears/questions about installing/using it, I can give you basics. NOT an expert, but installation was the easiest thing I could have imagined, took MAYBE 10 minutes literally following their official guide.
Agree. On my fifth anniversary with GrapheneOS and it still kicks ass.
The Pixel phones on the other hand still leave a lot to be desired as reliable hardware. My 8 Pro is the best of the ones I’ve owned, but not by much considering my Pixel 6 Pro had a shitty Tensor modem, and my Pixel 4 XL had a spicy pillow.
The sooner GrapheneOS moves to Motorola, the better.
I went 1 2 4 7 9. The first two where good 4 was shit 7 was even more shit and 9 has been slight better shit.
But it’s still better then fucking Samsung. Wish there was a good third option on Verizon that didn’t require me to jump through fucking hoops or is just a worse pixel.
