Hi all! I am curious to find alternative as my next phone and I was wondering have anyone made the jump from android to Jolla C2 and to the SailfishOS? If so, how was the transition?

    I recently got a used Pixel and GrapheneOS. Can recommend, although the “needs a pixel” part is a bit stupid. Jump was super easy. No constant scamming the user during the installation process and after…

    Hoping we get a non google EU alternative soon, but this works for me for now.

      Do you know how Graphene helps to protect privacy in case someone takes it to make a copy (ie TSA)? I’m an American living outside the US and I don’t have anything to hide (while at the same time respecting my own right to free speech and privacy) but it freaked me out when I learned morning that US immigration can make a copy of your personal phone if you don’t allow them to view your social media accounts. I’m interested in moving over from iOS to Graphene this year.

        I don’t know - however I highly doubt they can open a GOS phone and get to the data. But an authoritarian state can always gain access via the usual means, see https://xkcd.com/538/
