Maintainer. Was. These are volunteer open source projects.
Reddit seems to be creating a tipping process in which they take a cut... Delightful.
Former developer. They are no longer involved with the project.
The second part of your first post was answered in my original post. Auto apparently doesn't work.
Play store apps should still work sandboxed. Email, I'm not sure, but I'd assume so. It works out of the browser fine. I'm not familiar with Niagra launched so couldn't comment.
Out of curiosity, what do you use auto for?
Who said anything about less important?
We're all busy, and we use our time how we choose. They choose to use it in this way and I thanked them. Maybe consider how you spend your time. Arguing on the internet gives you very little.
Apologies if I came across as rude, but there has been several posters that are "interested" but couldn't live without Auto or payment. It's like of all the millions of features phones have, and the majority of dissenters here need the exact combination that GrapheneOS doesn't support. I find that really odd. If you are one of the few that needs that, point taken and maybe it isn't for you, but until today I hadn't heard of Auto's and now it's critical and something that cannot be lived without.
Fair point. Probably quite risky to only bring a phone on holiday though in case it gets stolen. I couldn't fathom that personally.
I've not rented a car abroad personally so don't know much about what that app provides.
I guess those that consider them deal breakers probably aren't ready to degoogle. That's fine, and it's a very personal choice for individuals. Maybe Android -> ios may work better for them if privacy is something on their appetite.
Yeah, I'd like the project to expand to others, but I think currently it relies on unlocking the bootloader, installing a new OS and relocking the bootloader and not many hardware manufacturers provide that right now.
I think without Pixel, there are a few things like Lineage (and I'm not sure about e/os) if the hardware isn't something you're going for. Other mobile linux isn't quite ready and needs time.
When I got a degoogled phone, I'd already decided I do not trust Google with my data and I want to be far away from them. With that decision came the decision that I don't consider them an authority I rely on, and don't want their opinion on what is good and what isn't. If people aren't ready to degoogle, that is fine, but to ask google if it's cool to degoogle is a an area where maybe folk aren't ready to degoogle.
Ah, maybe Voyager doesn't yet recognise those links and sees it as external. On Firefox, the link opens in same tab.
Great project, but those version numbers are killing me. Surely there isn't 16 hotfixes. They do realise they can go 2.100.0?
