Thread 106319766

> Unfortunately, an hour or so after Micay banned me, they began deleting their own comments from the ticket. Fortunately I still had a tab open with the comments that Micay wrote, so I captured a screenshot (mirror 1) (mirror 2) and also updated all my comments with full quotes of the messages that I was replying-to (since now it just looked like I was talking to myself).

Is Micay ok, transinisters? Are we still using GraphdildOS?

this board isn't your personal blog, you pathetic faggot

>>106319885

FOSS has never appealed to mentally well people.

>>106319885
Because the open source community does not have a mechanism to punish for poor leadership. In the real world, a trans freak running around the office annoying everyone would not only be fired, but would see the person above them potentially fired as well. In the FOSS world, terrible leaders aren't forced out, so they just cave to whatever lunatic starts throwing a tantrum, this chases away the talent, and you're left with cucks and freaks circling the drain until the project ultimately fails.

how can one possibly give a shit about any of this? buy an ad for your blog, Michael.

/g/tards will never understand that google spends millions of dollars securing their devices. GrapheneOS leeching their efforts while removing the spyware is a stroke of genius the average ni/g/ger will never appreciate.

>>106321292
grapheneOS as a whole is built on the closed garden of google. they use titan chip; and manufacturer fused-in keys for boot time firmware integrity so that no one but the guys that made your cpu could run its code/malware on your device. not to mention that you're basically running an arm smartphone so it has more obfuscated binary blobs than you could ever imagine

>>106319800
yes, they are. even worse, they will use hobbyist software with e-drama behind the curtains, praise it as the pinnacle of privacy and security and then come to this place to shit on iphones.

>>106321182
but they do keep on removing support. they started by denying them partner-level access and now they stopped providing firmware updates in the AOSP code,

>>106321396
>lmao, also funny how these threads never suggest an alternative, just pure demoralization with exactly same talking points, not suspicious at all

Just buy any cheap chink phone without security updates and a locked bootloaded anon. It's not hardware made by jewgle so you are safe anon. Or try the Fairphone. It's perpetually behind on updates and breaks any security measures in the os because the pajeet firmware devs don't understand them. But it's not hardware made by jewgle anon so you are secure.

Meanwhile in glowie land:
We need to list grapheneos seperately in our hacking tools because almost none of them work.

>>106319766 (OP)
Are you trying shit-stir? but had to ask /g/ for help lol

>>106319766 (OP)
I don't really believe this guy. But also this feature would never be added by the grapheneos guys. I was wanting to had the nav buttons swapped a while back, and I read through several forum posts where the grapheme team said they wouldn't implement it because they don't want to stray from the upstream AOSP too much. Which is why I use lineageos. If this guy wants super customizability, he should be using the super customizable os. If he wants security, use the security os.

...is still involed in GoypheneOS

>>106321703
It is not GrapheneOS policy to delete duplicates.
The delition happened a year after it was closed, just after someone commented that another ROM implemented this feature.
Obviously GoypheneOS deleted the ticket because they didn't want users to know that other ROMs have a security feature they are missing.

GoypheneOS is lying. It is a lie.
Nothing less than a lie.

And the fact that they are lying is more important than what they are lying about, because it makes them untrustworthy.

>>106321799
Then why is he running around lying about GrapheneOS 24/7?
And why doesnt, whoever is in charge of GrapheneOS, ban him?

>>106319766 (OP)
I don't care how much autistic drama surrounds him or how many people he bans. The fact remains that what he is making is solid and reliable, and I will keep using it.
It would of course be different if he suddenly turned into a tranny spouting leftist DEI nonsense, as then he would actually be a danger to GrapheneOS, but alas that is not the case.

>>106319800
Yes, this is the future we chose.

surely this can't be true, right? lmao

When the ban Micay from GrapheneOS, i will take it serious.
As long as they keep this lying security vulnerability around, i cant consider it an option.

This seems pretty exciting. If it does happens then we may actually be able to drop Google entirely. I was actually gonna buy a Pixel phone to install GrapheneOS once my current phone died, but now I'll wait and try and make my phone run a bit longer

>>106322682
>t. evil maid

>>106319766 (OP)
GrapheneOS is a honeypot. There is no way to turn off the updates, so the feds can court order them to force an update with an exploit or measure that will unlock your phone,

And they've already had a built in backdoor that allows them to view your user profiles simply by using localhost.

Plus cashapp and other bank apps don't even work on graphene because the devs haven't figured out how to spoof the os as a standard os, something lineageos has already figured out.

GrapheneOS won't exist after a couple more pixel iterations because pixel is becoming more closed source and Graphene's entire model depends on only one phone, google pixels.

The feature sounds pretty reasonable. I wonder why the Graphene Devs didn't want to implement it. Makes me very suspicious of Graphene now.

>>106323166
>>106323194
Schizo alert.

That's fucking based.

>>106323194
Graphene devs are right on this. Michael Atfield is an attention seeking retard.

>>106323301
>>106323224
Why doesn't GrapheneOS provide the ability to close an App?
That sounds like a very huge security flaw to me.

The more i read about GrapheneOS, the better LineageOS sounds.

>>106323446
Yeah, it sounds pretty unreasonable that they wouldn't want to implement such a simple and useful feature. Now it makes me suspicious.

>>106323046
If you consider the evil maid to be a glowy, locking the bootloader does nothing, because the bootloader is a glowy made binary blob.
You have to assume that your phone, that left your hands and was under temporary glowy control, is compromised.

That doesn't mean that your data is decrypted, though. It just means that you have to stop using it.

The GrapheneOS threat model is Ranjeet taking your phone, flashing malware on it and giving it back.
But you would detect that anyway, because all your changes like Magisk Modules are missing, so it is a competely theoretical scenario that doesn't happen in the real world.

>>106319766 (OP)
This project managed to alienate someone like Louis Rossman that should have been a sign to everyone that they're fucking worthless and full of schizos.

you can easily kill an app using the app switcher. there is no need for this.

>>106323889
that doesn't kill the app, though

lmao, I'm no pajeet that needs root nor Magisk, auto reboot feature from GrapheneOS is enough, not even Mossad/Cellebrite can access my BFU data.

Let's not rock the boat. We should accept Daniel for who he is and how he thinks. He is providing us a free and private operating system. Thanks to him and the users and supporters of GrapheneOS. Let's donate, if possible. :-)

GrapheneOS devs don't want users to have the ability to kill an app. Very sus behavior.

>>106319766 (OP)
hi rossmann you fugly jew

>>106323194
no it's stupid as fuck, literally normie-tier idea and placebo

Force stop does not prevent an app starting itself again via another app, unlike disabling an app, where there are already existing options to do BOTH

Why also would people waste time and effort adding exclusive features to 3-button navigation mode instead of a universally available on despite which navigation mode is used?

I'd reject such a half assed lazy approach for an OS too this is a vanity project for only this dudes preferences.

Some basic research shows how developers of apps can ensure apps restart regardless of being force closed.

https://blog.stackademic.com/handling-force-kills-ensuring-graceful-shutdowns-in-android-apps-2bd27fd84e14?gi=db78397dd599

Disable your apps if you don't want them to run.

i like how daniel thinks he's a genius because he took code he never wrote, repackaged, reskinned it and removed features that anyone can do with a rooted android phone. his iq must be at least in the high end of double digits. at least 80.
