The pixel phones’ software is not controlled by google after you download graphene, which has it’s own code, and own updates. It’s not reliant on google, as I understand it, and the soon to come motorolla phones will negate being reliant on google for anything at all.
I just looked up this ubuntu, I’ve seen the name before. From what I skimmed it’s not hardened, and 10 years behind graphene, but I don’t actually know.
You keep saying this and then repeat the same argument.
GraphenOS is entirely reliant on the devs at Google, because they update the device tree, drivers and patch security issues. If Google stopped doing that tomorrow, Graphen is fucked. They would be stuck on whatever driver they had last with all the issues that one brings.
The “only” thing Graphen adds is additional hardening and some customization and sandboxing code.

Lol, this ubuntu. Not knowing one of the, if not the single most well known Linux distro is already telling enough.

It’s not “behind” GraphenOS, it’s something entirely different. And the hardening is what money could be poured into, along with the other issues it still has. Still, none of these issues is being owned by Google.
Of course they do, especially compared to stock android. I would run it if they supported my phone.
I am not saying Graphen is bad or anything like that. Its just build on a shaky foundation. But if you have a phone that supports it, it’s a great alternative to stock

I will take all of that under advisement. I only know what I’ve heard from OS enthusiasts, and they pump graphene principally.
