		reddalo 9 days ago \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Motorola announces a partnership with GrapheneOS I've been buying Google Pixel for almost 10 years now, and Nexus phones before that, and my current Pixel is the last Google phone I'll buy. The ecosystem is closed, Google is speed-running to 100% evil, they're locking down APK installations, etc. I need to find a replacement, and with me a lot of tech friends and non-techies that just ask me for advice. The market is waiting for someone to step in; this is a golden chance for Motorola.

You can install GrapheneOS today on your Pixel.

I wish I could. Unfortunately, I need both Google Wallet (I don't carry a physical wallet with me) and both my digital ID app and my bank app don't run on GrapheneOS.

I'm annoyed a lot by that, but there's simply no alternative that I found.
