I read a post here a while back claiming that graphine is less private but somehow more secure. Of course the only person I have to ask is the graphine Matrix who claims are the opposite of this. Generally my main concern about Calyx is it’s Fake google play thing. Apparently this is less private than graphineOS’s sandboxed google play since it is still connecting to Google, and is just as privileged as Google play usually is.

    But the Sanboxed Google play services, I would imagine is still closed sourced. Right? If true, just accounting for trying to minimize closed sorced software on device, Micro-g must be strictly better, in that one issue at least.

      Sandboxing it means it doesn’t have any elevated privileges like MicroG has so it gets less data. MicroG still gives Google the information they’re after, just proxies through alternative services I believe.
