    ELI5: Why use /e/OS over Graphene? This isn’t a rhetorical rant; I’m genuinely curious. Edit: See below. I misphrased this question.

    I want to love this but I can’t compromise my security for this device. If y’all ever add MTE and the other features required by Graphene I’ll be the first in line

    I’ve been using /e/OS on a FP6 for a few months now and I’m very happy with it (edit: for context I’m in Europe). I had doubts about whether it could run certain apps like bank or government apps but they work just fine. Most of the default apps work well, but I did replace the launcher because the one that comes with /e/OS doesn’t have as many features as I would like. Battery life is also better than previous phones I’ve used. I don’t know if that’s because of the hardware or because the OS is less resource hungry. One thing to watch out for is it doesn’t have a headphone jack, though you can get a separate adapter that plugs into the charging port.
