Is GrapheneOS the best, and why?
Secure can mean very different things in different contexts. It depends on your security model.
Graphene only supports devices with:
hardware-backed keystores, verified boot, attestation and various hardware-based exploit mitigations
I won’t use GrapheneOS. This video basically explains why: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4To-F6W1NT0
I use my stock ROM and followed the steps from this guide, with some changes like using Shizuku and App Ops, instead of AppOpsX: https://lemmy.ml/post/128667
If your concern is solely with Daniel Micay’s behaviour he has in fact stepped down from the project as can bee seen in the following Nitter link provided. Otherwise I think debloating a stock rom is a good option for many people!
He used to have 2 accounts (GrapheneOS, DanielMicay) on Reddit that he operated, has 2 aliases (strcat, thestinger) on GitHub, and has a whole army of sockpuppet witch hunters behind him. Always lied about harassment groups coming for him over many years. https://old.reddit.com/r/u_lo________________ol/comments/1314x2x/_/
Within 24 hours of Rossmann’s exposé, he “stepped down”, and suddenly on his Discourse forum, there was a metric ton of censorship, comment deletions and silence on questions about Micay continuously. He not only did not apologise, but went underground. Why would he not just use another alias name and comeback?
I covered the entire GrapheneOS and related privacy community drama over the course of the past 5 years. https://old.reddit.com/r/privatelife/comments/13teoo9/
I find the yes the dev is a little intense, but you would be also when you have had multiple people harassing you and your project even going as far as getting squatted. The dev has a right to be mad, just because he’s being hyper defensive currently isn’t any reason for me not to continue to use GOS
He lied basically everytime about harassment groups coming after him. https://old.reddit.com/r/u_lo________________ol/comments/1314x2x/_/
