Hello, making this post to get some honest, and technical opinions about GrapheneOS. Please do not be bother by this question. No drama here pls 🙏. I’ve heard that there is some of the google code into the “sandbox” feature. Say your opinion below! 👇👇
/e/OS is not for privacy but more for anonymization. It has a built in VPN and a ton of spoofing stuff afaik. It’s closer to Qubes if you ask me. And I heard it had proprietary software so ehh it’s made to make you look like the most average internet user so you can search anonymously. I don’t have enough information about this ROM but I wouldn’t use it on my main device.
Why you wouldn’t use it on main device?
Convenience, proprietary software and because it’s not completely degoogled. I use LineageOS on my device and I’m happy with it. I can use Qubes or a VPN if I want an anonymous search.
LineageOS is more degoogled than others like eOS?
LineageOS actually seems to be getting less degoogled recently. They’re adding stuff for better Google apps support (that can be installed manually). But I believe it’s as degoogled as reasonable custom ROMs get. Not much advanced privacy/anonymization features though and no stuff like Play Integrity support obviously. It’s a ROM for these who don’t need gapps at all. And if you do, just buy a second hand device with the stock ROM and put your banking apps there. Play Integrity doesn’t work well on any custom ROMs now anyways.
EDIT: also EOS is EndeavourOS that is a Linux distro.
