After being on hiatus for almost a year Calyx OS has started releasing again. A degoogled Android ROM for Pixels, Fairphones, Shift phones and Motorolas.

I've been a great fan of the project and used it as my daily driver for >5 years. It was stable as heck and the devs were super responsive, even adding in neat features at users' request.

That said, I've lost trust in the project and moved on to GrapheneOS. The departures of Chirayu Desai and Nick Merrill smell weird from miles away. The latter left without any words of farewell explaining why he'd abandon his own project from one day to the other. I won't engage in speculation as to what happened behind the scenes, but there are enough red flags here to keep my distance.
