His technical chops are without question. However he has been so over the top obnoxious to MANY other leaders in the privacy space. He really hurts his own cause by refusing to acknowledge there are other threat models that can be solved with other answers.
Let’s call a spade a spade: He is a raging asshole with severe clinical paranoia. I’m literally certain that if he saw this post he’d accuse me of being a shill for calyxos and to never fucking again interact with any grapheneos account. Both have happened to me before (Hence I refuse to ever interact with his troupe again, even though I use graphene and agree with the vast majority of its technical decisions; I have also stopped actively recommending it to anyone, the social media experience is simply way too attrocious).
So just to verify you still use it because you realize and know its the most secure option.
Idk maybe our threat models are different but I could care less if someone is an asshole or a paranoid schizophrenic - as long as I am having the most private and security conscious user experience available then who cares?
You could still recommend it, since you already seem to know it is the most secure or else you most likely would have switched by now, but just explain that the social media side of it can be disheartening.
I will say, I’ve never had a single problem in any of the GOS forum pages on there website. Not a single one.
Agree, he’s a bit paranoid and delusional. I think that may speak to his psychological profile. Who designs an impenetrable OS except someone who is a little paranoid?

I wasn’t going to go THAT far . . . but I can’t disagree with a word you wrote. Take my upvote.

One might argue it would be more difficult to do if you’re not a little paranoid.
