i’ve been using graphene os for about a decade now and my second pixel (6a) is approaching it’s end date. i am not a techy person. i am, however someone concerned with digital privacy. when enough people who i find trustworthy endorse technology like graphene, i take a leap of faith because the alternative seems so much worse.
to get to my point, i’m wondering how the fairphone compares to graphene. my understanding is that most fairphone users run lineage os. does the security compare? does the repairability of fairphone compromise its security? i’d really appreciate an expert opinion or two.


I’m using Fairphones since v3, all of them on /e/OS. I don’t know for security per se but degooglisation is up to the max and I’m very happy about it. And if you really need a google service, microG is installed, configured and sanboxed so the UX is very smooth
I started my journey with the FP6 with e/os and am loving it!
Same. Have been using mine for almost a year now, and you may count me as a happy user.
