Interesting article from a generalist magazine. According to it:

  • Best Preinstalled Phone: Fairphone 6 With /e/OS
  • Best for Pixel Phones: GrapheneOS
  • Best for Non-Pixel Phones: /e/OS
  • For the DIY Tinkerer: LineageOS

Are the upcoming sideloading rules going to impact these forks? If so, we might need to get a Dev fund set up and get EFF involved.

But alternative repos, like f-droid, may have challenges because of some sort of mutual exclusion of developer space, but honestly I didn't fully get this part
