"My pants demonstrate an intent to conceal my balls, and it's up to me if I decide to conceal my balls." - Linus Sebastian, on France's claim that GrapheneOS is used by people who want to 'conceal' their data.
ive been daily driving it for many years
ask me anything 👍
welcome to the club 🥳
No one told me you could just get a used Pixel and boot grapheneOS onto it. The security features I get from this OS are kind of nuts
Mutahar from SomeOrdinaryGamers on GrapheneOS:
- if it pisses off the government to the point where they're asking you to put in backdoors, and you tell them "to fuck off", and then you get labeled as the "criminal friendly phone", then you're probably doing something right

I'm sorry, but you can't run GrapheneOS on a Samsung phone
as of right now only Google Pixel devices are supported
I've been daily driving it for years
ask me anything ✌️
note that it is slightly different from the AOSP installer
make sure you are using the official Stock Android installer:

happy to have nominated my favourite project that i enjoy using, GrapheneOS
consider doing the same
the project is wonderful, the community is wonderful, everything about it is wonderful

Google is 'inspired' yet again by GrapheneOS.
We are so far ahead and this shows how far behind the curve Android 17 is with this, we had it implemented on Android 13 in May 2023.

Welp, you clearly stated "GrapheneOS phone" and "Kubuntu laptop" so I hope they were joking (unsuccessfully) 🤷♀️
fix the screen, let's reduce the e-waste 🌍❤️🩹
most of the info you need is here:

GrapheneOS can't stop winning 💪
im daily driving GrapheneOS with Sandboxed Google Play
yes, I highly recommend it whether you need Google services, or you don't
For example, with GrapheneOS I can partially (or fully) disable the USB-C port to make it immune to any sort of Rubber Ducky
there are some apps that work better on GrapheneOS, and worse on stock Pixel Android
sandboxed google play is a compatibility layer, it allows you to run the official play store and play services as if they were regular third-party apps
on stock android (im sure you know) play store and play services have system level integration and control
on grapheneos, they have no privilege
difficult to call an OS secure when it has no proper app sandboxing, memory tagging, no proper hardware TPM/secure element support, etc
free and open source? definitely!
secure? only relative to other desktop OSes at best
if you need security on a mobile device - grapheneOS would fit much better
ive been daily driving grapheneos for the past 4 years
ask me anything ^_^
So far one of the best things about GrapheneOS is that holding down the power button opens the shutdown menu (as it used to on Android before Google fully embraced shoving shit sandwiches down users' throats)
my fellow GrapheneOS enjoyers
let's make a list of apps that have made a conscious decision to officially support GrapheneOS
almost all Android apps work fine on GrapheneOS, but some have decided to go an extra mile to target the private and secure OS
Yeeeeiiii, let's gooo 🥳❤️🔥
100% definitely not a Huawei phone if you value privacy
I don't have DMs turned on bsky, but yes, I am interested 👀
Weeks later after installing it, I'm still absolutely loving GrapheneOS. Feel like I should've done this sooner
