Shit like this is why I can't abide GrapheneOS or their cheerleaders.

It's legitimately the same attitude as Google itself. This parental, condescending tone, acting as if wanting freedom to control their own devices is somehow irrational. Continuing to push this toxic idea that handcuffs are the only way to protect users. Like a sysadmin at a workplace, but without the justifiable reasons.

Dude, not having root is objectively safer, and grapheneOS is security first.

If you want a rom that gives you absolute freedom, there are those as well, but it's not as secure.

P.S you can root grapheneOS, it's just not recommended or catered to and while I don't agree with their tone and the obfuscation of it, I don't think it matters as it just completely goes against security.

For the vast majority of users it's the best configuration. Google doesn't cater to small user populations.

Yeah, but people installing GrapheneOS probably aren't in the vast majority of users
