I’m sorry but it’s true. Graphene OS sucks the big one… It’s absolutely janky when it comes to its Android app support, it’s UI is absolutely atrocious, and all around. It’s simply a wonky operating system.

Not only that but the whole premise of of making an operating system built only for Google pixel hardware on top of Android Open source project is just silly when it comes to the idea of “privacy”. That would be like trying to open up a gay nightclub in Qatar. Google could snap its fingers tomorrow and lock down the ability to unlock bootloaders.

What do you think? Am I wrong here guys?

    As a user, I can definitely say that GrapheneOS is the single best project in the open source space. 99.99% of stuff works out-of-the-box, with de-facto feature parity. The remaining 0.01% is the one dumb investing app which I can only assume has sneaky spyware on it.

        Yeah, I can access all my banking perfectly fine on GrapheneOS. Never ran into a compatibility issue with anything to be honest.
