Yeah, I'd fuck it, if I wasn't already fuckin' it.
(I daily drive Divest)
How is it to you? Any notable issues? Also, are the Divest apps available in their F-droid repository pre-installed as system apps? Are the AOSP apps modified any? Thanks!
One notable bug I've had was being unable to install a specific bundled APK, though I think that's my fault for not using current vendor firmware.
Hypatia is a virus scanning app but can be installed on other android devices.
Mull is their internet browser, works well even with aggressive privacy settings.
The ROM is heavily modified, and mostly uses the fossify brand apps (formerly Simply).
Divest serves a very specific purpose. It's not designed to be rooted.
Hope this helps.
They have a lot of apps which aren't DivestOS exclusive
