Why YSK GrapheneOS is a step above the rest. I understand it’s ironic de-google phone/tablet with google hardware, but it just works better then anything else. Permission toggles, pin scrambling, auto-reboot, scopes, MAC randomization, isolated user profiles, longer passwords, sandboxed apps, open source firmware, no bloat & the battery life is incredible now.

I hope people understand how easy it is to move to Linux & GrapheneOS full time & remove Apple, Google, Microsoft etc. It exceeded expectations so much so that I want to share it with other people. I cannot recommend this enough to improve your life. #FOSS

    It is such a liberating experience not having any google product in my main profile. I only use some of the google app from time to time, like map and waze; so I locked them in a secondary profile with background data disabled, and background activity restricted.

    Unfortunately, I still need to use slack for work and spotify for music though. These are the only two proprietary apps in my main profile with network access.
