I don’t have any issues with people not recommending Graphene OS but they also suggested Google Android which is very bad for privacy.

Squreeee
How so? It seemed fine to me. In the video he discusses the problems with arm and one of those problems is Qualcomm
I posted the website a while back. By the way they got more than a million dollars in funding and are looking for sponsors.
Broadcom makes the wifi
I have never hated Windows
Not enought ram for MX Linux
Debian is a better choice in this case.
This device should be able to run Linux fine of the specs you provided are correct. You can either use CLI or a Light weight Window manager like IceWM. Web browsing and video playback are out of the question but it most certainly can run vim.
I would just install Debian. It is likely a 32bit machine.
NetBSD will not work at all with Broadcom Wireless
Well it isn’t something that should be discussed in a Github issue.
It is good for freedom of choice which ultimately is good for privacy
Come back in 10 years
It isn’t done yet. They are targeting 2026
Don’t use it I guess. At the end of the day not everyone shares the same views. Also it probably didn’t want the Github issue to blow up.
He is right, hey shouldn’t push a political agenda. They can fork it if they don’t like it. It is his choice and he is the one putting in the work, not you.
I now understand Israel motives
It looks like it is booting fine to me. If you get to systemd the kernel is at least mostly working

Pine64 boards rarely need proprietary software and they don’t need it to boot like the raspberry pi does. However, that is a discussion for another time.
You are also illustrating my point. The Graphene community has a my way or the highway mentality. As it turns out stock will often be more secure as it will have the latest security updates and will have less people handing it in general so less risk of supply chain attack from a bad actor in the community. However, this is a non issue. I find a lot of the so called security holes to be fairly mild as they require very specific targeting to exploit.
In general, the people around Graphene os and Divest OS are very toxic. In the F-droid board meeting the issue was brought up that the is censorship is promotion happing for Divest OS. People who criticized Divest OS were getting banned. The person who brought this complaint has a page where they go over there beliefs and bring forward evidence. I think they are a bit harsh but they do have a point.
They are good and bad. I think they have some good intentions but it gets lost sometimes in the form of bad advise. I do like that they have a Matrix Space and a Peertube instance.
Also I agree with them on Graphene OS. People need to realize that by just not using Google Android they are much more private. I think there is to many fans. They are almost as bad as Apple fans.
