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

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

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.

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.

lmao please give us another chance

There’s no evidence of them actually doing this and if they were to do it, its most likely detectable via reverse engineering.

Keep in mind setting the internet permission on gboard then giving other google apps internet access is privacy theatre. This applies to Google certified devices as well because Google Play Services are privileged.

If your referring to GBoard with network perms disabled, its highly unlikely that its using IPC as keylogger. There would be way too much useless data to store and not useful. Theoretically if they were to be a keylogger, the user would have to be in a super high threat model bracket for them to do this, but there no evidence of Google ever doing this.

Also OpenBoard hasn’t been updated since August 2022. I recommend using the OpenBoard Fork.

It was working fine for me today.
