What’s making you choose Graphene?
I also went Graphene, and it's privacy for me too.
I really don't want Google Play Services running, and GrapheneOS gives me that option. I have three profiles:
I spend 99% of my time on main, and most of the rest in "work" (need it for MFA). My phone reboots every 4 hours, so Google Play eventually stops running in the background (tried more frequently, and it was annoying).
There are other Android ROMs, but GrapheneOS has really rapid security updates, perhaps faster than anywhere else. The other projects are good too, it's just the first I tried and I've liked it so far.
Thank you for this answer. I’m interested in using something like this rather than the mainstream OSs.
Lots of reasons but mostly privacy and a boner for doing nerdy shit.
