You can always give it a run and add a report. Also, if it doesn’t work, give the app devs feedback that it is preventing you from using it. It might not be much but we can at least try to make our voices heard.

Were you using sandboxed Play Services? Having multiple apps doing their own notification listeners can definitely impact battery, but I’ve not had an issue.

I wouldn’t rely on the size of the address space to provide security. It’s possible to find hosts through methods other than brute force scanning. I remember seeing a talk from a conference (CCC? DEF CON? I can’t remember) where they were able to find hosts in government IPv6 address space (might have been DOD?) through stuff like certificate transparency logs and other DNS side channels.

Man, I need to go find that talk now…

Edit: I don’t think this is the one I saw previously but is in a similar vein: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AayifEqLbhI

Scenario time: A loved one has recently passed away, and I want to find all the photos I have of them. I would love to be able to have a local AI perform facial recognition to help me find these photos. The classification and tagging info doesn’t get fed into surveillance capitalist garbage, and I’m still able to benefit.

“What is this level of grand security…” Enumerated here: https://grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices

Once manufacturers can implement those things, then you will have an alternative to Google hardware for running Graphene. I’m not telling people to trust anything, don’t put words in my mouth.

Who is PrivacyPhones and why should I believe they are in any way affiliated with Graphene?

GrapheneOS has defined a set of security standards for their operating system which have hardware requirements. These standards have been published and there have been efforts to engage with hardware manufacturers to adopt the required hardware. Blame the manufacturers for skimping on security, rather than Graphene being unwilling to compromising their values.

I wouldn’t because I am not a dev. I stay in my wheelhouse and don’t try to pitch features as something they aren’t.

Calling the anti-features indicator a rating system is a biiiiiit of a stretch.

The security of your key is determined by the strength of your passphrase. Am I missing something?

BG3 running fine on my Ubuntu box.

RIP Wesley Willis.

If I remember correctly F-Droid supports reproducible builds, but it’s a matter of the app developer supporting them. So there is light at the end of the tunnel, we’re just not there yet.

Is there some signing in place to ensure it’s not a malicious repo? I don’t really trust unofficial F-Droid repos.

Wait, so the swirl wasn’t related to the “magic smoke” leaving electronics components when they get fried? Somebody lied to me.

I think we’ve reached a point technologically that it’s entirely within our grasp to secure the base layer of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs for everyone. Air, water, food, shelter, clothing, medical care.
