    @kuketzblog Um den Job, den GrapheneOS macht, gut machen zu können, ist eine gewisse paranoide Grundhaltung vermutlich hilfreich bis notwendig.

    In der Kommunikation nach außen steht einem so etwas dann eher leider im Weg. 😕

    GrapheneOS has a team of paid, full time developers. They are not mentally ill or paranoid. Multiple people have control over the official accounts. These posts that GOS makes do not stem from paranoia, rather this is a very real issue of nigh superhuman abuse they have to deal with.

      Der hohe nichttechnische Anteil in den postings, wer wem schadet oder lügt oder ..., besorgt mich.
      Dazu die Behinderungspolitik von google....

      Hoffentlich bleibt das Projekt stabil 😞

      GraphenrOS is here to stay, they have funding and a very bright future. Of course, they could always use more resources.

        @highfunctioningsociopath @flx @kuketzblog @GrapheneOS That’s criticism, not an attack. The projects mentioned are highly insecure and developers refuse to improve it. Some of them even attack GrapheneOS for spreading their false claims about privacy and security to sell more. If you think it’s “toxic”, think about how many activists will get arrested or even killed for using such projects.

        @a53bdb Yes, some projects focus on privacy first. And GOS criticizes them for being not as secure as GOS.

        Personally, I care more about privacy. I want a builtin firewall which blocks access to tracking APIs for app downloaded from PlayStore. GrapheneOS does not have that … GOS is for my needs less private than Calyx.

          @flx @highfunctioningsociopath @kuketzblog @GrapheneOS All of the projects are less secure and private than LineageOS, any stock OS like OneUI and iPhone. It’s a very serious problem not just “focused on privacy”, and privacy is based on security btw.

            Ich bin dem offiziellen GrapheneOS-Konto gerade entfolgt – nicht, weil ich das Projekt nicht schätze. Im Gegenteil: GrapheneOS ist im Bereich mobiler Sicherheit/Privacy weiterhin die beste Option.

            Was mich stört, sind die ständigen Seitenhiebe auf /e/OS, CalyxOS und andere Custom-ROMs - auch wenn die Kritik völlig legitim ist. Aber ich folge dem Account, um etwas über GrapheneOS zu lesen, nicht um regelmäßig zu erfahren, was andere in den Sand setzen. Wer ein starkes Projekt hat, sollte es für sich sprechen lassen.

            Das kann ich bestens nachvollziehen 👍

            Auch bedauere ich immer noch den Wechsel von CalyxOS zu GOS, wobei das auch mit der fortschreitenden enshittification von Android zu tun hat.

            Einen Beitrag dazu fände ich übrigens auch sehr wertvoll 🙏

            Seit A16 ist die Zugänglichkeit und Verschachtelung von Einstellungen weiter verschlechtert. BT Audio mit älteren Geräten ist nun nervenaufreibend. Und gar nicht erst zu reden von dem bevorstehenden crackdown bei app-devs und sideloading. Und der Akku hält bei mir mit A16 GOS enorm kürzer bei gleichem App und Nutzerprofil wie zuvor A15 mit Calyx. max 1d vs 1,5-2d.

              GrapheneOS ist technisch ein sehr gutes System. Ich benutze es trotzdem nicht. Neben der Arroganz, die mich extrem stört, ist mir der Fokus auf Sicherheit zu wenig. Das System läuft praktisch nur auf proprietärer Hardware von Google (bald zwar auch auf unbezahlbarer von Motorola). Mir ist mittlerweile auch mehr Nachhaltigkeit sehr wichtig, und da sind dann Produkte wie Fairphone weiter vorne.
              Es wäre schön gäbe es beides. So muss man sich entscheiden ob man ein hochsicheres System braucht oder andere Punkte wichtiger sind.

              All hardware is proprietary hardware. The marketing for many devices that they run on "open hardware" is false.

              GrapheneOS has long term sustainability with 7 year support on newer devices. Devices like Fairphone get very little support, and are often end of life when they are released. They have older gen hardware and ship older kernels. They falsely claim that updating what should have been updated years earlier is "extending support". If you really want a sustainable device and less ewaste, pixels are, ironically enough, the best choice. Much better than the on-launch ewaste.

              Other OEMs are welcome to step up and provide the necessary security requirements. Motorola did so. But this is often neglected.

                @denkbeteiligung @kuketzblog natürlich, aber es kommt halt auch immer auf den Ton an.

                Dass, was ich mitbekommen habe, ist ein Trommelfeuer gegen „Konkurrenzprodukte“.

                Was mich um so mehr befremdet, als es eigentlich keine „Produkte“ im engeren Sinne sind.

                Bei so etwas schrillen bei mir die Alarmglocken.

                Warum tut jemand so etwas?
                Und wem nutzt es?

                GrapheneOS defends themselves from attacks, a better question is why are they being attacked? Its awful and its an inhumane level of abuse they are subjected to. They dont want to spend time refuting all of it, they just need to lessen the harm caused.

                  @kuketzblog Finde es auch wirklich schwierig und nervig. Aber dieselbe Arroganz haben leider auch andere lohnenswerte #OpenSource Projekte, wie zum Beispiel #Valetudo.
                  Keine Ahnung, wieso man nicht einfach freundlich und unterstützend mit den Usern und der Community umgehen kann. Das ist schließlich die beste PR. Hab bei solcher Arroganz immer Angst, dass das Kermteam irgendwann hin schmeißt und man auf einen Scherbenhaufen gesetzt hat, der nicht mehr gepflegt wird.

                  Ive found the team to be very friendly. They speak neutrally and objectively. They have to deal with so much abuse that there is little time to discuss more positive things. If the abuse stopped, there would be a lot more positive stuff.

                    It has been very helpful in lessening the harm caused. The unfortunate truth is misinfo and attacks need to be refuted where they are, and misinfo/attacks are in a LOT of places, unfortunately.

                          GrapheneOS is very open to criticism. What is often called criticism, however, is not. It is often used as an excuse to abuse others.

                          @HybridStaticAnimate @betterlife @kuketzblog I did not criticise or such, I asked a question being a non techie and non developer.
                          And I have the impression, that they call much more “criticism” than I do. And if I read around, than many others do.

                            @HybridStaticAnimate Most toots on the official account are a mixture of paranoia and hatred for other Android distributions.

                            Apparently GrapheneOS team members are constantly attacked, swatted, harassed. A worldwide conspiracy against GOS. Then I saw that Louis Rossmann video: He had a little bit of legitimate criticism on GOS and GOS went mad, complained about his „harassment campaign“.

                            We have a word for this: paranoia.

                            No, they arent. They dont "hate" anyone and they arent paranoid. If you read the posts, you will see they also provide evidence of their claims. They speak neutrally and objectively. If they werent being attacked, they wouldnt talk about being attacked.

                            And yes, the team members being swatted, attacked, harassed, is all accurate. I wouldnt say its a world wide conspiracy. Its often done in the open and is done by multiple groups.

                            The Rossmann video is blatantly an attack. Taking advantage of someone in distress and airing them live. The responsible thing to do was raise the issue privately and GrapheneOS did. The responsible thing to do was also to keep it private and not stream it live and completely misrepresent their statements.

                            The issues with Rossmann were far more than "a single comment", and this doesnt even touch upon Rossmann lying to his own viewers for months after the ordeal.

                            We have a word for this; crime. Its numerous crimes being committed. Verifiably.

                              @tjr22 Oh yes, but so many people use "criticism" as a cover up. GOS is very honest about their shortcomings. But its so easy to mistake attacks as criticism so its commonly used by attackers to confuse observers.

                                  The sideloading limitations google are imposing will not affect GrapheneOS. GrapheneOS will continue to allow sideloading as it does now.

                                    @kuketzblog Ich bin dort tatsächlich seit Jahren geblockt, nachdem ich mich hier im Fediverse mal positiv zu CalyxOS auf meinem Fairphone 4 (das übrigens gar nicht von GrapheneOS unterstützt wird) geäußert hatte. Das endete in wüsten Beschimpfungen seitens Daniel Micay, in denen er mich u.a. als "dishonest charlatan" bezeichnete und dann noch Drohungen gegen mich ausgesprochen hat. Von solchen Menschen möchte ich keine Software auf meinen Geräten haben.

                                    The project accounts are managed by multiple people and nobody threatened you.

                                    Why are you trying to attack someone specific? Why are you attacking anyone at all?

                                      @tjr22 Oh yes, but so many people use "criticism" as a cover up. GOS is very honest about their shortcomings. But its so easy to mistake attacks as criticism so its commonly used by attackers to confuse observers.

                                      I don't see shortcomings in terms of quality and security or the project itself.

                                      I see shortcomings in communication.

                                      As you proved here: https://infosec.exchange/@HybridStaticAnimate/116390839545742939

                                      Funny sidenote: I had someone posting almost the exact wording you used on the official GOS account as I "critised" GOS by not critising them at all.

                                      Same here: Mike didn't critise the project. Just the communication on their Mastodon account. And poof, someone with 0 posts comes out of nowhere and implies "misinformation" and "hateful content".

                                        @kuketzblog Es bleibt ja leider auch oft nicht bei den Seitenhieben, sondern wenn man GrapheneOS für deren Kommunikation kritisiert, wird man gleich bezichtigt, Teil einer "harassment"-Kampagne zu sein. Ich wurde nach einer kurzen Diskussion auch letztens geblockt. Wirklich merkwürdiges Verhalten.

                                        As much as I appreciate #GrapheneOS as a project and as my daily driver for the past years I have to say that the team behind it has a severe problem of being paranoid and toxic towards their own community. I got blocked for simply asking a quastion and stating the obvious. https://bsky.app/profile/dataprolet.bsky.social/post/3mhynyplgas2u [contains quote post or other embedded content]

                                        Ging mir auch so. Ich sei ein Bot, würde Desinformation verbreiten und gegen deren Community Guidelines verstossen (weil ich einen kritischen Post abgesetzt habe während ich dem Account folgte).

                                        Well...

                                          Ich bin dem offiziellen GrapheneOS-Konto gerade entfolgt – nicht, weil ich das Projekt nicht schätze. Im Gegenteil: GrapheneOS ist im Bereich mobiler Sicherheit/Privacy weiterhin die beste Option.

                                          Was mich stört, sind die ständigen Seitenhiebe auf /e/OS, CalyxOS und andere Custom-ROMs - auch wenn die Kritik völlig legitim ist. Aber ich folge dem Account, um etwas über GrapheneOS zu lesen, nicht um regelmäßig zu erfahren, was andere in den Sand setzen. Wer ein starkes Projekt hat, sollte es für sich sprechen lassen.

                                          Ein Grund Graphene (nicht der Hauptgrund) nicht zu nutzen; diese Besserwisserei und diese Arroganz sind ermüdend. Ständig nur zu lesen, dass alle andere custom ROMs shit sind und die eigene das Maß aller Dinge ist, bockt nicht wirklich und hilft keinem. Viele Leute in deren community sind extrem toxisch und null kritikfähig. Statt sich für eine starke custom ROM community einzusetzen und mit vereinten Kräften gegen den Datenkapitalismus und die Totalüberwachung zu kämpen, wir alles andere als minderwertig abgestempelt. Und das dann in Verbindung mit einem Smartphone aus dem Hause Google? Nein, danke!
