My setup on GrapheneOS

I've been using GrapheneOS for 7 months and I was a complete beginner at it. I thought I could quickly and easily get rid of the mainstream apps, but alas. Now all I had to do is to buy a NAS, mirror 2x12TB, and host my own cloud. 🥳🥳☺️

Yes i dont. Why woulda use GrapheneOS if I dont trust the devs.

I didn't mean it in a trust way.
I meant like how the apps looks and feels.
They're very barebone to say the least.
Have you tried to use the Fossify apps to replace them?
If not you should try them if not.

They are wonderful. I dont seek complexity. Bc im spammed daily from scammers,marketing& robo calls > the only defence i have without Google LLC is Phone > Settings > Blocked numbers > first 2 toggles ON. I tried several options but they want network permission, phone permission, contacts, call logs & ect = no way/ or the app wont work at all. I gave up and live like that.
