Or in anticipation of the new market with graphene
Yes a cheap phone with GrapheneOS would potentially fly off the shelves
Motorola will only have 1 phone with grapheneOS on it and GrapheneOS will dev for that one device but they won’t dev for other Motorola devices. Do not expect to pick up any moto phones except that one device and flash grapheneOS on it.
To Lemmy users sure. But who outside of Lemmy, privacy nerds, and android enthusiasts even know what Graphene OS is?
Even my friends who are Android nerds had never heard of it until I started asking them about it. Graphene is a niche of a niche of a niche.
The project claims they have ~200k users
Considering PewDiePie talked about it, and needed on view count, at least a couple million know about it
Nobody really but if they advertise it right it has potential since even normal people care about privacy
The average person really doesn’t give *that *much of a shit about privacy. If they did FB, Google, etc wouldn’t be so big and profitable as they are. They Apple care about privacy.
