Well, I can't say I'm convinced, but I did buy a pixel and and am personalizing my graphene install. Lots of really cool features, and a really seemless install; though, I really hate google and this google phone makes me feel really dirty.

Gestern zeigte mir ein Freund seine neue Uhr, eine Google Pixel Watch. Er forderte mich auf, etwas zu sagen und die Uhr hat meine Rede transkribiert. Der Begriff "elektronische Fussfessel" fiel mir ein. Lustigerweise habe ich mir zu Weihnachten auch eine Uhr gekauft. Eine Kienzle #Automatikuhr, die seit 1975 die Zeit und das Datum anzeigt. Sie ist Teil meines Plans, die Kontrolle über meine #Aufmerksamkeit wiederzugewinnen und fühlt sich richtig gut an. Vgl. #Odell2021
Volla Phones ship de-Googled on MediaTek hardware with a firewall, tracker blocklists, and per-app network controls, all fine for escaping the surveillance apparatus of Mountain View. But let's not confuse privacy theater with actual security. MediaTek chipsets lack proper verified boot with rollback protection, the closed firmware blob situation is a mess, and Volla's "at least two years" of patches is a gentleman's promise on an unreliable short timeline. The Holochain "distributed cloud" they trumpet is more whitepaper than reality.
GrapheneOS, by contrast, actually hardens the system: hardened kernel, hardened_malloc, memory tagging, exploit mitigations throughout. It ships on Pixel hardware with a real secure element chip and seven years of same-day updates. Volla occupies the same tier as LineageOS and /e/OS, adequate for those who simply wish to stop feeding Google's data, but offering no serious resistance to a determined adversary.

Android 上线“扩展深色主题”设置，专治坚守浅色 UI 的“不听话”App
目前，这项功能仅限 Pixel 设备使用，其为 Android 16 QPR2 更新中的原生功能，未来三星、摩托罗拉等厂商也有可能跟进支持。

@npub1tz40...5sel We didn't add it and it's not a new feature. It has been there for quite a long time. It's a standard Android feature which is enabled when end session support is enabled. We plan to add a toggle for it instead of it always being there but we did not create that user interface. It exists in AOSP and the stock Pixel OS too but they don't enable end session support by default so it's only there when a device manager enables it. Android 16 QPR2 changed the user interface upstream.
