Every day I feel better about my decision to install GrapheneOS

Misleading headline. What's actually happening is that the ChatGPT app will have the option of setting it as the default digital assistant app. It's not replacing Android Assistant.

Great...just great.

How about they allow us to use the special assistant button from some manufacturers to be used for anything? Would be much more useful.

[–] Pantherina@feddit.de 1 points 10 months ago

I am so happy there is AOSP / Distros actually making it usable.

Did you know Google does as little work as possible making their FOSS projects usable? Chromium, Chromebook Firmware, AOSP, ...

Its very interesting what GrapheneOS all needed to do, to make it work well. For example they translated the Google Pixel Carrier stuff to AOSP (which is not compatible with the PixelOS stuff!)

This is funny because accessing Google Assistant is clunky AF on my both my P6P and P8P. In fact the only way I know how to launch it in lieu of allowing Google to listen to everything I say, is to connect headphones and hold the button, WTF?

"Apples could soon replace oranges in your fruit-based desserts"

I mean, honestly, what a worthless fucking title.
