A question as old as time, I know.
I’m getting away from Google and I’ve done the easy stuff: CoMaps, Proton mail (I know, not the best move), aveslibre, etc. I currently don’t have the time (or the knowledge base) to learn how to self host, but hopefully that will replace Drive and such in the future.
But I digress. I’m looking at a new OS for my phone. I’m currently in a contract with a phone that is incompatible with alternative OSs. Graphene needs a Pixel. Used, they’re $150-400. /e/OS will run on a Motorola or whatever and those are like $80.
There’s also the option of going full Fairphone with /e/os and I like that idea in the future.
The internet people tell me that Graphene is the best due to ease of installation, privacy, and security.
I don’t need a lot of security. I just want Google to stop suckling all that sweet, sweet data from my teat.
What are your thoughts?
did you buy it with graphene preinstalled? i’m thinking of doing it this way through murena because i also need a new phone, but hesitating on network coverage in the united states.
My daughter installed both just by reading the manual on internet .
It was more like a fun project for her , she has to learn sometime, it takes less than 1 hours to install.
Youre phone must be OEM unlocked.
Iam more in to linux .
