I understand that GrapheneOS will not require age verification, but what if I’m using a Google account on it? Will I still be able to use my Google account for the Play store on a GrapheneOS phone? (In the US) Thanks in advance
If Google needs your ID for a service, then yes. Regardless of OS you will have to verify if you want a Google service, like Play Store.
Why are you using Graphene OS if you’re still prostituting your data to google?
bc someone might still be dependent on certain services that he or she wasnt able to replace just yet.
Also: “perfect” is a the arch-enemy of “good”. Every bit of de-americanization, de-corporatification counts, and comments like yours somewhat disencourage people to even begin the journey. Bc “why even degoogle my OS, if I cant degoogle from that one since particular service 🤷”. It’s the same reason some people are not fighting climate change. Why care for my CO2 emission, if India or China wont budge?" We wont score perfect, so I wont even try."
That concept is called Practical Utilitarism
Everyone has different needs. For example, my father got tired of Google pestering him to activate the AI on his Pixel. So he got me to install GrapheneOS. He gets the convenience of Google services without putting up with the AI garbage.
I keep saying non-nerds should be interested in Graphene. Like, if you’re hot, why let the police ogle you? People should be more paranoid! Stalkers tend to seek out positions of impunity
Not saying your dad is hot, nevermind
