Good afternoon, y’all!

I have decided to take the plunge and switch over to Graphene OS. Is there anything I need to know before I use the web installer? I’m a bit bummed about having to set up all my apps again, but I’m exporting all my settings, thanks FOSS apps! to help with the transition. Most of my data is fully backed up through Nextcloud, so I’ll be able to just jump straight in with my photos and data.

So yeah, any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated before I go through with it tonight. Thanks, y’all and again, I love being a part of the Lemmy community.

    As someone who messed with a lot of custom ROMs for Android in the past, I can definitely say that installing Graphene is a breeze by comparison. The one thing to note is that their web installer can’t use Firefox (at least the last time I checked), but other than that the experience has been solid. 👍

      I definitely used Firefox a couple minutes months ago…I think. At least I don’t remember it being a pain in the ass
