Do you realize that you have very little privacy if you use Android or iOS? You location information and a huge amount of your data is being sucked up by Google and others. If you want privacy, you want to replace Android with GrapheneOS.
In this video I show you how to install GrapheneOS on a Google Pixel phone in 8 minutes. Start setting yourself free from the matrix.

The one thing that surprised me most (I tried /e/OS, not Graphene) is how much longer the battery lasted when running a de-googled OS. Bizarre. And also chilling, as you can only imagine what kinds of stuff the phone is actually continously doing in the background that consumes all that power. Also, my dear, sweet Apple Users: your phone might not call the mothership as often as as Google phones do, but they still do it a lot. You'd be surprised. Just like Apple is greenwashing their products, they are also privacywashing them. They hide your data from (some) parties but hoover up everything they can about you and share it with their own "buddies".

@victornikolov537 9 месяцев назад

Apple phone can be located with accuracy in magnitude of inches thanks to the BLE. Apple also uses it to create a mesh network which transmit data between the devices. Even f you are not connected to the internet, when the phone wants to send some data to the mothership it looks for Apple devices connected to the internet, tries to connect to them by BLE and transmit the data to them, then they are sending it to the mothership.

Now I bought another second hand Pixel 6a (I always go with the a models because they are cheaper and since I do not care much about camera and storage for me is a win), because GrapheneOS support for this Pixel version will end on October this year.

@tobiewolfen01 5 месяцев назад

What makes it cleaner? The flavor of Android is pretty vanilla for the Pixel compared to others.

@minefacex 5 месяцев назад

No Google Play Services or similar bloat. It is the closest you can get to the vanilla AOSP experience. I do use Play Services in a sandboxed manner, but even then, it is still just an application where I control it's privileges, no invasive functionality. The only downside to using GrapheneOS is that (so far only Netflix and Google Wallet does this) some application require to be as-is, so only official devices with stock stuff. The funny thing is that GrapheneOS does support this, but if the developer explicitly disables the app, it will not work. I think if you can live with those 2 apps not working, it is an amazing choice, cleanliness is only one of them the reasons beyond security, privacy, extended support etc. @@tobiewolfen01

The issue with Graphene is that it's limited ti Pixel phones only, at least for now. Year ago, I've installed e foundation's e/osbon my Nexus 5 and it was the best thing I did, mostly because I was able to get a newer Android OS version compared to factory image and because it was much lighter and snappier as such.

I ran GrapheneOS on my pixel 6 for a few months. Returning back to PixelOS was trickier than it should have been.

Once it starts getting better app support I'll probably come back.

What's your take on the controversy between the Graphene main dev and Louis Rossman/Techlore on the other side? After all, if someone uses underhanded tactics against critics and competitors then how honest will that person be with his customers? Is that a red flag for you and if not, why? I was considering Graphene but the issue made me a bit uneasy as to whether or not to install it. Also: how fast is Graphene on security updates as it is a smaller company? After all there is a lot to consider when it comes to trusting a new OS.

Yes, I was shocked & concerned what Louis had to say & show. He's been promoting Graphene OS for a while, but.....then opened up something weird & toxic. You'd hope the devs are still 100% privacy & user focused, but it didn't look good. And to think Louis just wanted to interview the guy

Appreciate the video, but you forgot one of the first steps before installing GOS. I will quote directly from the GOS web installer page: "It's best practice to update the device before installing GrapheneOS to have the latest firmware for connecting the device to the computer and performing the early flashing process." When you get a new UNLOCKED Pixel, it will likely have many updates needing to be performed. Settings > System > System Update > Check for updates. Even if it says "Updated," after doing one update and rebooting the phone, doing a "Check for update" again and again will likely produce two or three more updates available.
