Fundamentally? I think it’s a fantastic project that serves a major need, and positively influences people who are completely unaware GrapheneOS exists.
On a personal level? I’d rather carry a flip phone. I felt like I’d traded a $1000 Pixel in for a phone I could’ve gotten for $300 unlocked for prepaid.
I use my phone for 6-10 hours a day though, and need everything integrated with my PCs, cloud synced, etc. I actually use all the “invasive” features of my phone, so it was a jarring experience that left a bad taste in my mouth.
I don’t blame Graphene for that though - that’d be stupid. Those features come at a cost. But I don’t have time to monkey around at work - when I take a picture it needs to be on my MacBook by the time I walk back to the office, among other things.
