i’ve been using graphene os for about a decade now and my second pixel (6a) is approaching it’s end date. i am not a techy person. i am, however someone concerned with digital privacy. when enough people who i find trustworthy endorse technology like graphene, i take a leap of faith because the alternative seems so much worse.

to get to my point, i’m wondering how the fairphone compares to graphene. my understanding is that most fairphone users run lineage os. does the security compare? does the repairability of fairphone compromise its security? i’d really appreciate an expert opinion or two.

    What made you switch to Graphene a decade ago? I did not know it was a thing then. I have been curious but cannot get past the insane devs.

      not sure it was a solid decade, but it’s been a while. my first pixel was a 4a. anyway, just hearing about it from tech privacy influencers i was following. i’ve not followed any of the drama, but if it’s bad all the more reason to switch.
