So they coulda done it this entire time? What are we doing?

But here we are. Being pedantic. 👍👍👍

Its a catch 22.

1. Hop over to GrapheneOS, you’re losing support later this year.
2. If you stay on stock android, you lose support later this year.

In my head, assuming you don’t need any stock android apps or apps that run better on stock android (banking apps)

I would say install GrapheneOS. It’s about 20% more efficient than stock Android. Sure it’ll lose support soon, but by default it’ll be “more secure” than using stock android that is outside of its support window.

You can probably squeeze another year or so out of it before it starts to get weird with old OS and new apps.
