Basic open-source Android apps have felt outdated for years, and the GrapheneOS team is finally stepping in to fix the problem. The developers are shifting resources to completely replace clunky default software with modern tools built from the ground up.
i dont want to sound like a dick but they really should’ve just forked the LineageOS apps that are maintained like they did with seedvault. this feels like theyre reinventing the wheel, or NIH
Would be great if those two could play nicely. Lineage features with GOS security would be the bees knees.
I think Calyx OS would strike that balance
As a Calyx user, only kinda. A lot of the hardening done in GOS is missing from Calyx. Likewise, a lot of features in COS (firewall rules per connection type per app for instance) are missing from GOS.
