They can make the ISPs block certain IP addresses, perhaps

I don’t think folks like them would bother with geoblocking, given their principle. Most likely the French govt would block them first.

Makes sense. Nobody would want to broadcast their own downfall.

They’d farm cows on it soon enough

No. You’re hindering progress this way.

I did not say people immediately get that GrapheneOS is a secure phone OS just from the name. Adding “OS” to its name does not make it less obscure.

Do you really think anyone would see the name “postmarketOS” and right away think this is a Linux distro for phones? Perhaps the “-OS” part gives it away that it’s some kind of OS, but so are a lot of projects that end with “-OS”.

For example: ReactOS, RedoxOS, ChibiOS, MicroOS, TempleOS. Can you really look at any of these names without knowing beforehand and tell what it is about?

While I’m with you on the tracker spamming, those random unmaintained areas would need to be addressed one way or another.

The website seems to timeout.

Like is it a hardware thing, and something other manufacturers cannot have for some reason?

Why doesn’t Graphene support other phones?

Damn… They must be running a bunch of 20 years old hardware to not want that v2 march.

Look, just try something already. All those fancy tools mean nothing to you if you’re not familiar with them.

For that, I’d recommend Linux Mint.

Perhaps my grandchildren would spell it correctly.

You know, Windows98 is still available

Long time Debian user. First time really paying attention to their governance process.

What is this, a Monty Python skit? How the fuck are they gonna come with a consensus with all these choices?

There’s really just choices 1 & 2. The rest are just elaboration. And what the fuck is even ‘none of the above’?

Really, there’s just ‘yes’ and ‘no’. If it’s a ‘yes’, there would certainly be condition, which can come later. If it’s a ‘no’, who give a shit why; it’s a vote, not a fucking book club. They can definitely put the reason in the comment, but do they really need to put the reasons as the choice?

Well fuck that…

something something piracy is a service issue, probably?
