I love graphene as much as the next guy, but this article is pretty terrible. Badly researched, just spitting out talking points that are either flat out wrong, not the point of graphene or just scratching the surface. Look up the graphene homepage, if you actually want useful info.
While it’s not nearly as customizable as an Ubuntu kernel, it’s still easy to make your GrapheneOS look and feel exactly how you want it to, within reason.
WTF is it supposed to mean?
Tried to switch to graphene for a bit. Way too many apps don’t work in it.
I would love to make the switch, but I am certain that absolutely zero of my government mandated apps will run on this thing.
Mandated is the wrong word. “Required for absolutely everything” is more precise. In Denmark you need an app called “MitID” to do any kind of digital verification. You can’t do online purchases, banking or digital bureaucracy without it.
How do people who don’t have smartphones do it? Is there some harder roundabout way?
mitid recently implemented play integrity, it should still work if previously installed but new installations don’t work (https://discuss.grapheneos.org/d/1520-status-of-mitid-app/279)
It Feels Almost Like Android… But It Isn’t
So what is it?
