Instead, I installed CalyxOS and have been using it over a year now and I'm very happy with it. Check it out.
You have to be aware that you give that person root when you use Graphene. All possible technical improvements aside this is a very big risk. He claimed he would step back after the video released, then called that a lie and continued with everything.
Calyx seems to be the best alternative right now without such a risk factor.
> extremely hostile and threatened Rossman
At the time, he was very upset. You know, because he was swatted multiple times. Of course he was upset when Rossmann showed his true colors and was trying to talk to him. Rossmann saw this as an opportunity and recorded it as it was happening. He tries to portray Daniel as crazy and people who attack the project and his friends on Kiwi Farms lap that stuff up.
It's not true that he stopped using GrapheneOS, though. He continued using GrapheneOS for months after that video, which you can see by watching his later videos.
> hallucinates
Repeating baseless claims that he's crazy.
> You have to be aware that you give that person root when you use Graphene.
What? This is a very strange way to say it. Either way, it's literally impossible for someone on the GrapheneOS team to target someone like what was claimed in the video. GrapheneOS devices don't send identifiers when they contact the update server. The update servers also only host static files.
> Calyx seems to be the best alternative right now without such a risk factor.
The "risk factor" is completely false. It's all made up to attack GrapheneOS, making the founder look like a crazy person, then people are scared of using the OS. CalyxOS is not a hardened OS and rolls back security in some ways. It's not the next best alternative for people who care about these things.
> Of course he was upset when Rossmann showed his true colors
I saw the chats. You lie. Showing his true colors = not accepting that there is an evil conspiracy and asking for proof. You are completely brainwashed and I will not continue this discussion.
If Calyx is not the next best alternative be invited to link to what you think is the best alternative. I still think it's Calyx.
For more context, there was a Google Drive link that is unfortunately not available anymore, but I found and uploaded it here: <https://www.swisstransfer.com/d/d75ff782-4a7d-4497-b04e-edd1...>
It has they initial conversation and disagreement in September 2022, after the GOS developer in question accuses Rossmann of being complicit with harassment campaigns again said dev., because he also gave the same 40K USD FUTO grant to other similar project and had some interview with their developers.
The second set of files are the text messages that feature in the video, after said GOS developer contacted Rossmann umprompted on May 2023 with the same type of accusation.
Feel free to peruse and make you own opinion.
