So today I finally took the plunge and bought a new Pixel 8a to install GrapheneOS on. It will be my new daily driver, replacing my current phone. It’s getting delivered tomorrow, and I’d like to make sure I’m getting the full privacy/security benefits from the device. What other recommendations would you provide?
The license is not great and idk how it’s better than HeliBoard for example. Wouldn’t recommend in the FOSS world tbh.
Just checked, it seems fine to me. Can use it for any purpose, and can modify for non commercial.
This is true for Foss purist… I don’t think any privacy enjoyer cares though
A privacy enjoyer isn’t going to be concerned about licenses!? What? That’s like… The entire thing?
The privacy concern is whether the source code is viewable, which it is in this case, not whether the application is free.
I mean, if it has a worse license and no advantages then why choose it? It’s worse overall
Advantage is that it allows on device voice processing and it is good at it.
Oh ok that’s a valid advantage.
