I’m a big fan of /e/OS, use it daily and love it. As I understand it, it is as secure as Google Android, just tons more private. So security wise it seems fine to me, my risk profile is just regular mainstream

Gos only subdues to Google phones, this is actually it’s own project
Fairgreen@lemmy.worldOPto Open Source@lemmy.ml•Murena launches phone with open-source /e/OS and privacy focus (hardware kill switch)261·20 days agoTo be fair making a phone is likely not a cheap endeavor
Nope that’s just FUD from certain other OS developers who are super toxic against literally everyone
This is actually incorrect, on almost all devices that Murena sells the bootloader is locked. I think you are confusing their official builds with their community/volunteer builds
Better than Play Services, microG the European open source alternative

/e/OS fan here, imo it combines a great design and interface with lots of privacy options. Super easy to use. Also the combo with the Murena Cloud is incredibly useful Best deGoogle option imo
This is a great explanation thanks
/e/OS works with Android Auto

Haha I love this meme, it’s so true
+1 for /e/OS! Brilliant combo of user friendliness with open source and privacy
The Fairphone 6 is also great!
