You see the pattern here - and also in most of the other things you publish?

I mean, from a technical point of view you're 100% right. But does it give you the right to constantly criticize so much others who are trying to solve the same problem?

Have you even talked to some folks from Fairphone, Purism or Jolla to understand if it's even possible to help one another?

Remember that hardware manufacturers who don't allow users to unlock their bootloaders and companies who try to push their "Integrity APIs" are supposed to be the enemies here. Not Fairphone.

So by using Linux I'm not avoiding Google because Google engineers also contribute to the Linux kernel? Do you realize that this doesn't make any sense?

> You should take down the highly inaccurate post you made and publish corrections for the majority inaccuracies. Otherwise, we'll wait for peak hours and publish a thread directly addressing the misinformation, the unsafe products which are being promoted and how those products are falsely marketed in order to scam people for profit. If you don't want us heavily investing in writing about this then stop propagating misinformation about GrapheneOS with the clear goal of promoting those.

I had a lot of respect for you folks and for your work, but you've taken it all away.

I still respect your work, to be clear, and I'm still a happy Graphene user.

But I'm not sure if I respect someone who repeatedly threatens users on the Fediverse if they don't take down their posts and spends all of their communication resources bitching about everyone else.

I have edited the post to remove the link to the article that claimed that AOSP is being dismantled because it was objectively inaccurate.

But everything else (from hardware manufacturers pulling back on unlocked bootloaders, to the Integrity API, to Google's alarming monopolistic strategies, to the fact that relying on Google's goodwill is a liability) is true. Why should I pull it down? And, in case you didn't notice, I also stated in it:

> Your best bet is to purchase a Pixel 9a now, before more manufacturers decide to block bootloaders, and immediately flash it with #GrapheneOS.

Why do you want me to pull it down then?

Why have you been shouting "misinformation", "misconception", "false news" DOZENS of times in this thread?

Why don't you chill down and take a deep breath before hammering on the keyboard and giving everyone else the impression of a toxic bunch who hates everyone else?

Because I also said that my long-term wish is to have a full Linux phone with open hardware and mainline kernel and I also mentioned a few of the alternatives?

Do you realize how toxic you sound to anyone who reads your messages?
