To be honest I do not see any reason to use Lineage with Pixel while there is GrapheneOS… But maybe there will be some users of it: it is always better to have more free open OS
My understanding is that Google wallet won’t work with grapheneos. It does with lineage ( with play integrity fix ). This is the only reason I use lineage. I’d love to not have any Google services but Google wallet is just such a huge value add. I don’t carry a physical wallet at all and it’s great. I wish there was a libre alternative to Google wallet for tap to pay, but sadly it does not look like that’s happening any time soon.
The only use case i guess if you prefer microG implementation v sandboxed GPS.
I think GOS model will end up being proven right from security/privacy perspective but the debate is ongoing.
GOS chief should not be in any public facing communication position though… that weaponized autism with heavy dose of paranoia is what is needed to develop GOS but not a good look objectively, and I give people a lot benefit of doubt.
Anyone using Lineage? How is it?
I’ve got a Pixel 7 and have been wondering
