I understand the decision. It’s kind of unreasonable to expect a developer to maintain a release without access to reasonably-maintained source to work on.
Yep.
But in the Real World, what's the pragmatic difference between Graphene and a well-managed Lineage or DivestOS device, since security and privacy are both managed via layers?
I'm genuinely not being snarky. I tried running Graphene and had issues, and their support was atrociously condescending and critical, so now I'm running DivestOS instead. I've run Lineage on other devices without Google.
I think there’s definitely security concerns which is their highest priority. If the kernel isn’t maintained, security issues aren’t getting patched. You might be able to cobble something together, but there’s going to be holes.
I think they’re paranoid and that’s not a judgment. Rightly so if security is your first priority.
