You can install GrapheneOS on the Pixel so I'd say that one.
Yeah, that is one of the reasons I'm intrigued. Havent looked at it since the Rossman/Daniel Micay thing though, is it still good?
As long as you don't interact with the devs lol. It's a really good OS despite the controversy.
Okay, cool! Several people here seem to recommend it so I will add it to the "scale"
Micay stepped down as lead developer and foundation director. I'm not sure what role he has with the project currently, but it seems like he plans on leaving the project entirely, long term. I haven't heard of any controversy since then. They've been hard at work and actually added support for Android Auto last month.
Daniel is okay. The shit he got from opinion-spreading people like Rossman... doesnt make sense.
He is still very active, maybe not the official head of the project but will still answer like every Github issue.
He and many others have very profound Android knowledge and discuss.grapheneos.org and their website is really helpful.
GrapheneOS is simply a good system. They change so much in minimalist ways that make sense, like sandboxed play or enhanced permission toggles.
