    Love the project, but I would really like if they stopped looking like a bootleg iOS. Stock android is fine, especially after Material 3. Also the name is annoying to type in an URL bar.

    I’m using e/OS - the operating system with the most annoying name - for ~5 years now with my Fairphones. Banking works, App Lounge is anonymous and it syncs everything with my Nextcloud. I really like it.

    I’m really interested in trying it if one day I have to get a private phone on top of my company’s iPhone.

    It’s great that we start having alternatives to Apple and Google again.

        Just not a fan of them, they feel kinda iOS to me. That doesn’t take away from the awesomeness of the ROM though.

          They’re good icons cause you’re right: they are blatantly cribbed from iOS. Moving away from Google doesn’t mean making the whole OS look like Apple’s…

          I have heard that said by a few people about e/OS. I though they looked slightly better than the previous ones, but I can understand the criticism

    Use eOS for couple of years now. Not a fan of the Bliss launcher, but its the easiest thing to download a different one. I use Simple Laucher from fdroid.

    Does android auto support need a change to the custom rom to work? From their site it just says to install a few apps and it’ll work. I have yet to try a custom rom. I’ll do that when my current phone goes out of support.
