In seemingly small, but important ways, going through the discomfort and inconvenience of moving from Apple to Linux and Graphene has given me a substantially greater ability to appreciate—and actual appreciation of—freedom tech. Warts and all.

This has made the time and trouble worth it, many times over.

If you want to more deeply experience and understand what's possible and where it's all headed, I highly recommend making the switch.

I have a pixel 8 with a bar of light going down the side of the screen. Graphene loaded on it if you would want to play around or try to use it as your daily driver.

Was an avid Linux and Android (custom roms) user for probably a decade. It’s what drove me to use Apple products now. 😂

Come back. It's the year of Linux on the desktop. 😉

🤣 I do at least keep a functional installation on one of my devices for when I need it

I made a similar leap from Windows and regular Android a year ago and I have not regretted :)

so sick of iphone users telling me you can't stay anonymous online anymore

If you ever want to share your journey in articles/videos/book format I’d be an immediate buyer!

I’m also trying the switch, and yes all the info is online, but it’s so scattered and time is money. If anyone found a source that is aimed at teaching the basics in a concise way please do share please

Good to know. I've been kicking around the idea. Cheers.

This is on my list to do, so I'm happy to see your post!

(I see notes about tracking chips embedded in everything - do any of you have concerns about that?)

Tracking chips could be interpreted many ways. From cellular radios to things like Tile.

I’m in the process of migrating myself. Keep after it brother!
