      Probably because it’s kind of a bad experience? I say that as someone that uses it regularly for multiple apps. I’m not a fan, the search alone is basically useless unless you know the exact title of what you’re looking for and even then it’s sometimes not the first result for some reason.

      I’m sure that someone will reply to this with some suggestion for some alternative front end for the fdroid store that supposedly fixes that which will just further highlight the issues with it of fragmentation

      If you visit the grapheneos forum, it is generally not a preferable choice, for security reasons.

    Looked at first minute, seems to be about GrapheneOS. Talks about privacy, might be worth watching, doesn’t obviously drag. Around 11 minutes long.

    Graphene os seems to be a popular option. For some Sonys you can install Sailfish. Any other options?

      I looked at GrapheneOS briefly yesterday and it seems like the only supported hardware is really… Google Pixel phones?

        FYI, grapheneos primary aim is security and not offering a degoogled os. The community generally even prefers installing applications through google play, which someone may choose to install.

        Yes, because they allow you to re-lock the bootloader after flashing a custom ROM. They’re also pretty trivial to unlock the bootloader on in the first place.

          Yes I’ve had several pixels and oneplus phones over the years and run various roms on them, it just seemed like graphene would be an odd mention/recommendation in this community.

      Depending on your appetite for such an experience you could look at PinePhone or FuriPhone or some of the other “linux” ones.
