I understand him though, GrapheneOS without the underlying security hardware is a huge security risk for the end user. It makes people think they get benefits from running a secure os while in fact, they are at the same level as running lineage.
Graphene OS doesn’t use an alternative to Google services. It’s the OG Google services they use. The only difference is on graphene, it’s installed as a user app, not a privileged app.
Let’s call it a mindful use of missiles, you know… So you don’t deplete 1/4 of your missiles in that one category you really need.
Motorola will only have 1 phone with grapheneOS on it and GrapheneOS will dev for that one device but they won’t dev for other Motorola devices. Do not expect to pick up any moto phones except that one device and flash grapheneOS on it.
