Im considering buying a new phone and i don’t really consider a Pixel. I really like Fairphones approach, with the self repairable stuff. Even though they don‘t have a headphone jack. But well… I can’t change it. I’ll definitely go with the adapter over wireless headphones.
But to my question: What private OSes are there? Fairphone sells FP4s with eOS, how is that? And does it work on the FP5? GrapheneOS only works on Google Pixels right?
In that case, have fun coding up your own bootloader and flashing it onto the device. If you can’t trust the bootloader, then you can’t trust anything at all from the operating system that sits on top of it, because it could be compromised. If you can’t trust a bootloader, then the only thing you can trust is a pen and a piece of paper.
True but it feels like obscurity via obscurity.
