I’m sorry but it’s true. Graphene OS sucks the big one… It’s absolutely janky when it comes to its Android app support, it’s UI is absolutely atrocious, and all around. It’s simply a wonky operating system.

Not only that but the whole premise of of making an operating system built only for Google pixel hardware on top of Android Open source project is just silly when it comes to the idea of “privacy”. That would be like trying to open up a gay nightclub in Qatar. Google could snap its fingers tomorrow and lock down the ability to unlock bootloaders.

What do you think? Am I wrong here guys?

    Honestly, its not perfect, but at least I’m not having ai prompts and constant adverts shoved in my face.

    The stock Graphine apps and home launcher are very basic, they didn’t focus on them because there are a prethora of better options already out there. For the basics, I recommend lawnchair, fossify gallary, fossify file manager, fossify phone, and open camera. For messages, I’ve got nothing. Only thing I’ve found that works right with group chats and sending pictures is google messages…
