Hey people! I was wondering if anyone here has heard of/ used Morena’s /e/OS and would be willing to share some opinions?
I was looking to get a FairPhone 5 sometime soon anyways and randomly came across the option to get it “without Google”
Which took me a bit off guard because I never really considered that something like that could be an option (without the hassle of rooting a phone and slapping a custom OS on it). So - is it any good? It says that you can still install most regular Android Apps. I don’t think I would miss any specific Google features, and getting a fresh start with a phone does sound nice.
Everything is behind GrapheneOS in terms of security. It does a whole lot more than just being up-to-date.
Whether you need that degree of security depends on your threat model though.
