      You do realise that GrapheneOS is based on AOSP which is still mostly under control of Google?

      one of the biggest problems is the gatekeeping role that Google plays with AOSP. No patches that the company dislikes get into AOSP, regardless of what a wider community might think of them.

          I’ve given up Android some years ago. Had a brief time with a BlackBerry and am now enjoying the comforts of the Apple ecosystem. But I’m contemplating going the dumb phone + Palm Pilot (or Psion) route. That being said, that FLX1s seems very interesting…

      How is Chinese-American Motorola hardware better than American Google hardware for running GrapheneOS? Seems like it could have double backdoors.

      You say no and then mention you’re waiting for an alternative that’s coming so yes then?
