TL;DR

  • Efforts like Graphene OS face increasing pressure from apps that refuse to run on non-standard Android.
  • The custom ROM project characterizes Google’s approach to device attestation as incomplete and flawed.
  • Graphene OS is prepared to take legal action if Google won’t let it pass Play Integrity checks.

Graphene is great, but I'm currently on a Xiaomi phone so I can't run most ROMs, I'll likely run derpfest when I get the bootloader unlocked

that's one I haven't heard of. how is it functionally?

I haven't tried it yet, but it seems to have a lot of pixel features ported, I realized crDroid supports my phone so I might try that
