This isn’t true and dismissing the anti-cheat issues because you don’t play these games is quite ignorant when they are some of the most played in the world. Just off the top of my head, all Battlefield games, PUBG, Apex Legends, Valorant, Rainbow Six Siege, Escape from Tarkov, League of Legends, Fortnite, Destiny 2…
I think it’s easily good enough for general use. It’s only certain types of gamers (anti-cheat support is still pretty terrible), and people who are heavily attached to a specific Windows program that they spend a lot of time using, that will have trouble switching across full time. For everyone else, Linux is superior because it runs so much faster than the now incredibly bloated Windows. Depending on the distro, it’s also arguably simpler than Windows too.
iodéOS has never made allegations against GrapheneOS. You are spreading so much conspiracy disinformation in this thread, it’s crazy you haven’t been called out more for it.
…?
What are we supposed to be looking at here?
GrapheneOS is highly popular and pretty much just works so the on life support thing is BS.
I think perhaps you missed the context there. The future for Android custom ROMs like GrapheneOS is looking quite bleak currently, even its developers have acknowledged this.
Unless you are an activist willing to dedicate large amounts of your time to the cause, that is probably our future.
Typical GrapheneOS user. Blindly shills it without even reading the thread.
I said smartphone, not mobile phone. Some feature phones also have GPS functionality.
It doesn’t have to be one or the other, it is still possible to live without a smartphone (for now).
Proton recently released an AI chatbot, though it is not really doing the same thing as Andi.

You guys are still signing into search engines?
It’s not about giving them extra slack, it’s aboit whether you want to live in reality or not. No small FOSS app is going to be a 1:1 match for Google Maps, that’s just a complete fantasy. So you, and others complaining in this thread, need to decide whether you are willing to make sacrifices to support big tech alternatives. If not, fine, but I don’t see the point in moaning about it online if you are unwilling to be part of the solution. The alternatives won’t magically improve if no one uses them, they need people to support the project and offer feedback to help shape future development.
Switching to FOSS/private alternatives is full of compromises. Considering this one takes about 10 seconds out of my life and is literally how all navigation worked before smartphones and learned helplessness, I think it’s well worth the trade-off.
