It might be a good substitute for some. Some features like contact and storage scopes are missing, and IMO they’re pretty cool Overall just worse privacy and security compared to Graphene
May I recommend Universal Android Debloater instead? It lets you uninstall the bloatware easily with lists, you just need a device running a desktop os and a cable to connect it to your phone
EDIT: if anyone is reading this, the project appears to have been abandoned, try the fork called Universal Android Debloater Next Generation (yes it’s a dumb name)
I know in GrapheneOS that the Google Play Services are sandboxed and you can install them in a specific user profile, but I’m not sure if doing that still gives you notifications across those profiles
Hopefully someone with a little more knowledge of this can help? lol
I’m not a GNU/Linux expert, I’ve only used it on a server for a short time, but I have some things to share.
Remember: search engines are your best friend! Obviously it would be better for someone to recommend a program for your specific use case, but you can find things like notepadqq (Notepad++) or xone (Drivers for your Xbox One controllers) with just one search.
About GNU/Linux distributions: each of them provide a different set of software, including package manager, desktop environment, file system, etc. You can basically ignore the differences between distros if you use distrobox, which will let you install software regardless of your distro. Other differences will mainly be in the actual software they distribute (so you may need to use sudo apt rather than pacman or whatever.
The “flavours” of distros can mean different things, often though they just have a different desktop environment so it runs kinda different, or it is designed for a different use case.
For your use case, Pop!_OS has an ISO that includes Nvidia drivers, and Linux Mint also lets you install the proprietary drivers. Both are fairly common in the GNU/Linux space (especially with beginners) so you can get tons of support with those.
Damn. I wonder if a custom OS remove this “feature”…
TL;DR Microsoft has a strict policy of only hiring contractors to work on Halo, and only keeping those contractors for 18 months before they’re forced to go. Something something Microsoft execs want to be able to fire people.
One thing to note that seems to be missing from the article: Halo Infinite uses a custom game engine (Slipspace). So when these contractors are hired, they spend so much time training that they don’t end up working as a skilled employee for very long before they leave, then new contractors are hired.
It’s so stupid since this is so obviously a lose-lose situation: the contractors gain a skill that is useful literally nowhere else, and Microsoft’s games just keep getting shittier.
