I am honestly not sure as to what the benefit of that is compared to the approach of CalyxOS with MicroG. It has worked for me perfectly, except for one app, BeReal for some reason gives a pop-up telling that Google Play Services is missing, even though I already have MicroG fully setup and working. Other apps have all worked fine, including Google Apps like YouTube and my banking app.
Lots of people care about having access to that kind of phone hardware option. It does have a degoogled AOSP ROM so it’s pretty fucking good even though it’s not GrapheneOS.
GrapheneOS is maintained by a certain team of people, unaffiliated with Fairphone, and they might develop a branch for the Fairphone if they feel like doing it but they probably won’t since they primarily focus on Pixel ROMs.
Let me know when it can run GrapheneOS. Until then, who cares?
All the people who buys fp.
Ok, you got me there. I just ment I don’t care.
Mine already runs CalyOS so there’s that.
I mean, good for you. I kinda need my sandboxed google play services, despite wishing I did not.
