        LineageOS with microg works for most devices

        Issue is that it is no secure. People should be buying pixels flashing calyx or graphene going forwaed in ther next upgrade IMHO

          Issue is that it is no secure.

          Explain. I’m tired of hearing this boogeyman, tell me exactly how Lineage is “not secure” but Graphene is?

          Then maybe give me some examples of cases where that difference has actually been a problem.

          Because it feels like a lot of these “unsecure” things people hand-wring over are really just user freedoms they may use to hurt themselves, not actual vulnerabilities that can’t be avoided with common sense.

            Primarily because bootloader is not lockable, plus delayed updates.

            Also, they do some weird thing with how it is developed. I think it is always in some weird “developer” state but I don’t remember details.
