You can always give it a run and add a report. Also, if it doesn’t work, give the app devs feedback that it is preventing you from using it. It might not be much but we can at least try to make our voices heard.

Were you using sandboxed Play Services? Having multiple apps doing their own notification listeners can definitely impact battery, but I’ve not had an issue.

Scenario time: A loved one has recently passed away, and I want to find all the photos I have of them. I would love to be able to have a local AI perform facial recognition to help me find these photos. The classification and tagging info doesn’t get fed into surveillance capitalist garbage, and I’m still able to benefit.

“What is this level of grand security…” Enumerated here: https://grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices

Once manufacturers can implement those things, then you will have an alternative to Google hardware for running Graphene. I’m not telling people to trust anything, don’t put words in my mouth.

Who is PrivacyPhones and why should I believe they are in any way affiliated with Graphene?

GrapheneOS has defined a set of security standards for their operating system which have hardware requirements. These standards have been published and there have been efforts to engage with hardware manufacturers to adopt the required hardware. Blame the manufacturers for skimping on security, rather than Graphene being unwilling to compromising their values.

I wouldn’t because I am not a dev. I stay in my wheelhouse and don’t try to pitch features as something they aren’t.

Calling the anti-features indicator a rating system is a biiiiiit of a stretch.

Very informative, thank you for sharing!

Oof, I didn’t realize. Thanks for the heads-up!! That sounds painful, and probably pretty nerve racking!

The DIMMs were touted as being low profile for compatibility with a bunch of air coolers, I’ll have to double check to make sure this pairing works though.

I don’t really see myself doing much upgrading, haven’t changed anything in my current setup since I got it. The four DIMMs should be enough, and I can’t think of any PCI devices that I would want to add in. That and looking at their other offerings yields a bunch of nausea inducing RGB and jumps way up in price. I’m not dead set on this mobo, I was looking at recommendations for manufacturers and it seemed the consensus was that ASRock was a decent pick. If there’s a different option that makes more sense then I’ll pivot. My current setup is a Gigabyte that has some pretty bad issues, I can’t even get into the BIOS anymore.

If I remember correctly F-Droid supports reproducible builds, but it’s a matter of the app developer supporting them. So there is light at the end of the tunnel, we’re just not there yet.

Is there some signing in place to ensure it’s not a malicious repo? I don’t really trust unofficial F-Droid repos.
