Or is it just buggy?
@Pantherina
I agree, although there are three things worth mentioning:
-
The conventional Android is not that opensource. It is bundled with tons of proprietary Google stuff. That’s why de-googled Android does not provide as smooth experience.
-
Android does not restrict you to “only OpenSource” components. WhatsApp for example is widely used and is not FLOSS.

- Degoogled Android is just as possible. There are nearly all the tools needed (apart from system level stuff like backups) that work without many privileges or with a fine grained permission system
- Never said that, but its security allows you to use random stuff and not fear malware. GrapheneOS just does the last % to complete it, like storage and contact scopes.
