Really glad I decided to switch to GrapheneOS. My next phone will be a Motorola for sure.

    motorola makes great phone. I remember my 1st Android phone, after years on iOS, was the Moto Z Play. That thing can last a week with light usage, or 3 days with medium usage on a single charge. Also remember those moto mods? Motorola had like speaker mod and even a mini projector that you can just snap on the phone.

    So what do we do when they start making it harder and harder to install graphene?

    Getting a motorola cause they explicitly will be supporting GrapheneOS.

    But all of that is just a stepping stone. As soon as I deem linux phones to be usable as a daily driver for me, I won't look back.

    If the rest-of-the-world can get its head out of its ass, a fork of AOSP with an open governance and a commitment to opensource and open platform, so that every one benefits from it. You wouldn't need that much from each country to get more resources on that AOSP-bis than Google will ever be able to pour on its homebrew version.

    You make a rule that public service can only buy devices using AOSP-bis based systems (or even better: states choose their own AOSP distros) and quickly, Google has no choice but to follow your version, not the other way around.

    don't give Google the monopoly

    better: "You make a rule that public service can only buy devices using libre systems"
