Bri Guy what phones are you all using?
zzzI guess I'm the rare CalyxOS user
Pixel 3A with CalyxOS here 😉
swytchHey :)
I recently broke my 1+6T, and settled on a Pxel 7 to replace it. I will flash a custom ROM on it, but I have concerns regarding GrapheneOS since Rossmann exposed Daniel.
That said, I've heard about CalyxOS, and I'd say the Calyx project is interesting! How does it run for a daily driver? Security-wise, I reckon ir's a middle ground between GraphenOS and LineageOS, but I'm not sure what to expect from it...
Daniel Micay stepped down as lead developer and foundation director from graphemeOS .... Announcement was posted here https://grapheneos.social/@DanielMicay/110437191840640957 ... Graphene OS is easy to use and install via web installer. GrapheneOS has regular security updates. You can read the list of them here https://grapheneos.org/releases you can also see the list of grapheneOS specific security features here https://grapheneos.org/features
Saying Micay has stepped down is big assertion, since they could be pretty much anyone coding for the project (I mean, having an alias). It's a matter of trust and if I cannot trust them to do what they say, I still trust the community behind the project.
That's why I ended up flashing GrapheneOS. I did try CalyxOS, but couldn't find any real value compared to LineageOS (besides, maybe, network authorization) when it comes to apps installation and behavior. I'm happy with the settings of GrapheneOS, and I'll see how the situation evolves to decide if I keep it or not :). I have no doubt that if Micay stays around, we will hear bout them in no time.
They have created a foundation and any changes would require 3/4 vote. Do know there is public github with public commits of all changes, so please don't imply any mistrust to Daniel Micay, Daniel has been put through a lot these last several years. Let's try to be understanding and kind please. I am happy you like GrapheneOS :)
