No thanks, I’d rather use a Google Pixel with GrapheneOS

buy privacy-first community driven phone look inside closed source OS with no recovery image and outdated dependencies
The most fascinating thing is how some in the open source community go wild against a tiny player delivering one of the most daily driveable phones with an OS other than from the big-tech duopoly (besides Huawei but that’s another topic). It doesn’t help that a system that is partially closed source (with the closed parts basically being only the home screen UI and the qt implementation) is misleadingly called “closed source OS”.
Especially the frenzy within the GrapheneOS community in this regard is curious.
Why can’t everyone just choose what they prefer without firing against other small alternative OS projects as if they were made by the devil?
