minus-squareNovaSel@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up12·2 months agoI’ve heard of something called GrapheneOS which the privacy community seem to like. The installation guide has my head spinning so I haven’t done it, but if it’s something you want to look into, there you go.
minus-squarecircuscritic@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up18·edit-22 months agoThe installation couldn’t be more simple…just use the web installer and follow the simple instructions of when to click. I’ve been installing custom ROMs since 4.0, and the advent of web installers, such as for Graphene, are the easiest ROMs I’ve ever flashed. Much simpler than even the custom recovery route, which was already fairly straightforward, but this is even easier IMO.
