Funny, the comment types here are the same as on Youtube:

  1. “I still run Android and it is totally fine, will never switch Android just got worse!”
  2. “Well, money”
  3. “Companies need to support phones longer”
  4. “I just use LineageOS on that device”
  5. Misinformation

      Android is pretty secure. The kernel is highly stripped down, so it is more like a microkernel. Like, removing support for most filesystems etc.

      They also moved a ton of things into userspace, I think their entire filesystem uses fuse.

      Android is really good.

      But still, LineageOS may implement all the minimum AOSP patches. But Google Pixel phones get more than those.

      And monthly is of course slower than weekly, bjt expected if you support such a vast range of devices.

      Then the issue of course is, is the firmware still supported? Where do the kernels come from?

      These are likely out of reach for the devs.

      Also, their OS is very generic, just AOSP with mostly cosmetic changes.

      Where GrapheneOS implements tons of deep modifications, which makes updates and maintenance a bigger task. These features also cause more bugs which need fixing.

        Weekly updates wouldn’t work at all and would take lots of time. From a Lineage OS perspective they maintain there own apps as the AOSP ones are abandoned. They all match the Android 14 UI. Also the default web browser is actually a usable browser.

        I don’t really understand the Graphene OS die hards. At the end of the day they are both from the same source. The issues with Graphene is it has a lot of extra bloat and complexity. It also is not really stock AOSP which isn’t as nice. Lineage OS isn’t stock either but they don’t make changes unless it has a very really cosmetic benefit. I don’t really care for Graphene OS.

          Yes the LineageOS apps are really nice. GrapheneOS usese the same, but the old versions.

          They maintain different apps.

          Their core OS is even more minimal than that of LineageOS, apart from shipping an extremely privacy and security optimized variant of Chromium. So no bloat there.

          complexity, yes.
