I want to mainly use it for privacy over its "security". I don't know what makes everyone fine with running it on fucking google pixels. Is there some kind of "low security" version or something for other phones? I'm so tired of certain organizations infiltrating privacy communities and making people believe in improving "security" by voluntarily giving up on privacy and using even non free software like that insecurities blog and other people.

Good to know for sure. I confuse the fairs/librems/pines sometimes, are the fairphones the ones that are hard to get in the US? Iirc the librem is the expensive one and the pine is the kinda not as good one, but I can't remember if it was the fairs or the librems that were hard to get in US.

Hopefully they get graphene working on it soon, that'd be awesome. Turns out it's a bit more than just the bootloader that they consider however: https://grapheneos.org/faq#future-devices so looks like I was only partially correct lol.

Yeah, I don't know alot about fairphone but I know the latest model wasn't released in the US

Ah yeah well that'd def be an issue for US people. They look good though if we could get them lol, hopefully they'll make it to the US and get graphene soon!
