It’s inevitable…you people are going to have your Android given the iPhone treatment and you are going to LIKE IT! 🫨
Seriously though, alternatives? Grapheneos Mastodon page is a dumpster fire at times. One minute they are as ferocious as lions claiming they will never surrender…the next they are lamenting that Google won’t feed them and they need a new hardware supplier
CalyxOS folded quicker than a wet paper bag at a simple management shift! GrapheneOS and it’s days are numbered
So what’s the real option going forward?
Fairphone is the open platform. The GrapheneOS guys could start working with that. It is an actual project including a hardware supplier not bound to Google. Another one is Purism, but their stuff is often very expensive. As long as the Pixel is a fully open hardware platform we will be fine, but they could choose to lock it down at any time.
GOS is already working with an OEM to produce their own phone. I think they said they are around a year away.
