Google is messing with AOSP pixel drivers: https://calyxos.org/news/2025/06/11/android-16-plans/ Thats what I was referring to, but yeah, that is also a thing.

Graphene is bult on top of android AOSP, which is owned by google… And of course they are fucking it over.

Check calyxos.org s recent blog posts, it is basically dying (and graphene is the same)

Debtap ftw

I feel like I am feeding a troll, but let me break this down:

If you have a gun, you can point it at anything and pull the trigger, you don’t need the permission of the manufacturer to do so.

Not with a phone, you CAN’T load any software you want into your phone.

That’s the difference, you can do whatever you want with a gun, and if you mess up, you go to jail. You can’t do whatever you want with your phone, only what the corp.s (apple) allow you to.

Also, google is cracking down on custom ROMS too, checkout the calyxos blog, it is rough.
