I wouldn't use Graphene OS personally since they refuse to accept negative press or the fact there may be alternatives. It is all about Graphene OS and how Graphene OS is grand. Don't you dare criticize or use your device in a way they don't endorce. I'm not even sure they would be willing to admit if there was a serious flaw in Graphene OS.
With that being said, I think Linux and AOSP have made a lot of progress in the right direction. Just because I don't like the Graphene OS team doesn't mean that some of there techniques can't be applied outside of Graphene OS. Android and the Linux kernel have bith seen significant improvements in security.
Graphene OS will not work for everyone. It also only supports a handful devices even thought there are other devices that support bootloader relocking. Graphene has decided to instead frame everything that isn't a Pixel running Graphene as universally bad.
Graphene OS ex main leader stepped down as he was getting death treats and was struggling with some mental problems
PS: info might not be entirely true
News to me... i hope he is still around doing the hard work. Dude clearly is paranoid enough to sniff out Android better than the Mega Corp that released it lol
But he was not good at PR. He should be posting under anon account if at all haha
The product is strong and I don't need to like the guy.
Don't think he's been around for awhile.
