  • Graphene has a bunch of features that you may or may not agree contribute to privacy over all (funny since it only operates on Google’s devices, that is, devices designed by a US enterprise).

    LineageOS has some little QoL features but otherwise keeps it very AOSP. The most prominent difference is the dependence on specific device maintainers, meaning that some devices may get stuck on A13 while others may already have A14 or 15, though imo it’s a small price to pay for having a modern OS on a 10 y/o phone or tablet. Graphene only provides support for Pixel models that have security updates, so you will end up with LOS if you’d like to keep using your Pixel 2/3/4 etc.

    LOS can get rid of the pill at the bottom of the screen 😏



  • I had the exact same problem with regular Fedora KDE. In my case it turned out that it didn’t wipe out the entire Microsoft bootloader because there was a backup bootx64.efi. In the end I downloaded a windows installer iso, copied the boot* files and directory to efi/Microsoft/boot and copied that bootx64.efi and added it to the grub menu using the 40_custom file in grub.d and applied grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/grub2/grub.cfg

    To boot from grub you use set root and chainloader /... which you then write as a menuentry

    Sorry for the bad reply but I’m working
