Good Idea: Make GrapheneOS Mainstream

https://motorolanews.com/motorola-three-new-b2b-solutions-at-mwc-2026/

Most people never get to choose a truly private phone, not because they don't care, but because the secure options always felt too technical or too niche. That's changing.

Motorola just announced a partnership with the GrapheneOS Foundation! Bringing one of the most respected privacy-focused operating systems into the hands of everyday users.
No more choosing between security and a phone that just works.

@MinistryOfGoodIdeas This is really disappointing from @GrapheneOS because of all the #manufacturers, #Motorola literally fights #EU standards for #LongTermSupport of #firmware with tooth and nail...

  • Like all their arguments against #Fairphone apply to Motorola too, if not harder!
    • Cuz I sincerely doubt Motorola will do even half of their " #security" demands and is even worse #AntiRepairDesign than #Google's garbage devices!

I guess #GrapheneOS need an #EgoCheck and instead #LineageOS and other #ROM|s really need to up their game...

  • As for me, I don't trust any mobile phone - period!
    • And that won't change until I either get the entire #schematics and #reproduceable #firmware builds WITH the entire #SourceCode...

@kkarhan @GrapheneOS we will have to see.
The interesting part is that it will drive momentum and maybe get other big phone manufacturers to move into similar directions. Especially given the current zeitgeist.

Lets see if Nokia gets out of their hole and gets into the open source game.

@MinistryOfGoodIdeas Check out the current Motorola Signature (2026) which is close to meeting our requirements but not quite there. They've committed to providing 7 years of support for it. That's part of what we need for GrapheneOS support but with very quick updates for the drivers/firmware and major OS updates. We're going to be working with them to put everything together needed to provide that for GrapheneOS on their devices. It will be ongoing work for years afterwards.
