So I’ve been in the rabbit hole of android privacy for some time, last I joined the GrapheneOS community but let’s just say that they doesn’t have a “healthy” opinion about other projects like f-droid.
So I am looking for generic communities that focus on mobile privacy that doesn’t have drama or toxicity or “extreme opinions”. Any suggestions? I prefer chat based communities like matrix or simplex instead of like reddit or lemmy.
I run graphene on several devices and recommend it. I do not participate in much discussion about it through. You can just use the best we got in android and be fine with that.
Discussion forums are the same all over I think. I don’t see much difference around graphene here on Lemmy or XDA forum.
For the love of God do not ever go to their community in any case… If you need technical help literally ask anywhere else… If you go there, you’ll end up hating GOS you’ve been warned
Was this recently? It was bad under micay but thought it had improved by now.
Isn’t he still pretty involved in the project? I only followed the Rossmann story for a bit until I encountered random attacks on microg in the issue for Mozilla Location Services shutting down.
There’s also this random attack on alternative location services by GrapheneOS.

(Some surrounding discussion on the article can be found here (microg issue for MLS retiring))
Overall, Graphene does not seem like a friendly project in my opinion.
Still not great…
I’ve always got help, and the moderators are really nice.
