minus-squareAlas Poor Erinaceus ( zdhzm2pgp@lemmy.ml ) OPlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year ago we’re either going to have to fork AOSP and make graphene and lineage operating systems in their own right with no connection to the previous Android How feasible is this? Very, I hope.
minus-squareshortwavesurfer ( shortwavesurfer@lemmy.zip ) linkfedilinkarrow-up5·1 year agoNot sure. Forking AOSP itself wouldnt really be the problem. The bigger issue would be security patches and that over time the code bases would severely diverge.
minus-squarepinball_wizard ( pinball_wizard@lemmy.zip ) linkfedilinkarrow-up2·1 year agoIt’s very feasible, but some of us will probably run old GrapheneOS Pixels or dumb flip phones for several years while the work gets done.
