Sandboxed Google services on grapheneOS.
The mark of the beast.
(Also, when do we do a google antitrust again?)
Google play services is a monolith, that does a plethora of stuff on the phone, including features like quick share, location services, various Firebase APIs for instant notifications stuff, find my device and whatnot, so I think the size is pretty reasonable.
For it is a human number
Why dont you use MicroG?
MicroG requires signature spoofing, which Graphene deliberately does not support. It is more secure to run the real Play services in a sandbox that forces it to be a userland app than to run MicroG as a privileged system app with spoofing.
Oh, I didn’t know that, thanks.
Saying signature spoofing for all ROMs is less secure is misinformation, see CalyxOS’s explanation: https://calyxos.org/docs/guide/microg/#is-microg-a-security-risk-in-calyxos-because-it-requires-signature-spoofing
Too hard to install 😥
You mean graphine? It’s actually really easy
Literally just an apk on fdroid
What now?
The power of christ compels you!
