   Why I don't run GrapheneOS: the lead dev is nuts. I'm old enough to remember CopperheadOS.

     @alex @gabriel All I did was bitch about the Apple weather app. I could not have predicted this hilarious turn of events.

     He was nuts before that in the rust community as strncat. I suspect he's clinically paranoid.
     
     But why not benefit from his paranoia? I was running CopperheadOS when the keys were destroyed. I appreciated it. The smartest people are often the nuttiest. I'm gonna keep on with GrapheneOS.

     @gvs @gabriel Yes, although location services still don't work very well. microG seems a bit pointless.

     I ran Calyx like that for a while but GrapheneOS with sandboxed play works better to be honest.

     True, but running code written from someone who's clearly mentally unwell has risks. If he goes full schizo and decides that god wants him to backdoor his software or something. Bit of an unlikely scenario, but it should be a consideration when evaluating whether to trust software or not.
