@nprofile…m8mr @nprofile…x9z3 @nprofile…plv4 Again, for most users, this is too vague, and while I'm sure you know how to confirm that in no time, I have no idea where I would start to verify these claims.
So, let's start from what we "knowing a bit more than average users but not at all expert" can get:
VPN support: yes, that's clear to me
profile support: if we are talking about multi-users features or personal/work profiles, I still get it, though I think scopes are a better approach, and that's currently a GOS exclusive feature
good privacy from the OS developer: no idea what that could mean
"not preserve the privacy and security of AOSP": because they're late in patching the system, or because MicroG runs with elevated privileges (even that one, I get what elevated privileges mean, but I may miss all the implications) or are you referring at something else?
Actually, if you know of good online resources to get myself better educated on all of this, you may prefer to point me there rather than spending time here. You may have better things to do than addressing matlag and other users' ignorance.

@nprofile…x9z3 @nprofile…m8mr @nprofile…plv4 Ok there. I'm not affiliated with either /e/ or Graphene. I am currently using an old Oneplus5T running Lineage with MicroG, but full disclosure: I just got my hand on a brand new Pixel 8a tonight, and as soon as it is charged, it will get Graphene.
Example of privacy oriented feature I'm looking forward to use:
Scopes (Contacts, Storage): I use some proprietary apps, and I will be able to restrain their ability to go through my contact list and all data on my phone.
That's one example of one thing you can say about Graphene vs /e/: in /e/, allowing an app to access Contacts give it an unlimited access to all of your contacts, same idea for storage. In Graphene, they access what I will let them see. And no, I can't just not grant permission: some apps will refuse to work if not given the full permissions package.
Now, I agree that repeating over and over that XXX is insecure and is bad for privacy doesn't give anyone the slightest idea about what's wrong with XXX. And the linked comparison table between Android distros is all but straightforward for the vast majority of users and the amount of entries is overwhelming.
(What the hell is PSDS/XTRA? Which of these lines are relevant to my use case??).

@nprofile…pnag J'ai hésité à repoueter. Mais est-ce que ça pourrait relancer une vague d'agression??

@npub1w74…j3vn Ça supposerait que les trolls soient soit des bots soit des gens qui ne paieraient pas.
Malheureusement, je pense que beaucoup sont juste des gens qui n'ont rien de mieux à faire.
Par contre je soutiens totalement l'idée, ça devrait enterrer TwiXer bien plus vite que cette longue et pathétique agonie à laquelle on assiste.
