It’s a little more than that. I had to manually install speech-to-text and fiddle with language downloads and mic permissions to get that to work. And I had to disable exploit protection on my banking app so it would launch. And… well that’s about it. The rest was basically identical to setting up stock Android.

Ulrich@feddit.org 1 day agoOthers love the option to dump Android for Graphene OS but I really haven’t seen a compelling argument for why
I mean if you don’t care for privacy or security then you won’t.
I personally should go to the trouble
The only trouble is plugging in your phone and clicking a few buttons on the website.

I’m not really sure how much my OS affects that though. If I remove that avenue, cool, but I’m still signed in on my browser and YouTube and various other apps, so to really protect my privacy and security, wouldn’t I need a whole slew of other changes to actually be effective? Credit bureaus, which I never even asked to have involved, can’t even keep a lid on my shit. How secure and private can I really expect to feel just from changing my phone OS, and is that warm fuzzy really good enough to justify moving from something that is working exactly as I want and expect to something that is, in a word, uncertain?
Not trying to attack you or anybody with these questions, just kinda frustrated that any time I’ve tried to look into it, all I find is a vague statement about privacy without any real elaboration, or worse, a bunch of speculation that the guy running it is unstable or something. Idk, it just feels a little like the wave of people screaming the praises of crypto.
