Robert Braxman has published another video spreading blatant misinformation about GrapheneOS in order to promote his highly insecure products and services. In addition to many false technical claims and fabrications about our team, he's falsely claiming the project is dying.
GrapheneOS is currently under a state sponsored attack attempting to misrepresent it as being for criminals, which we covered a bit at grapheneos.social/@GrapheneOS/114784469162979608. These poorly researched, biased and inaccurate news stories have led to more harassment towards our community and team.

GrapheneOS based on Android 16 is now available in our Beta channel. There are 2 main known issues which will be fixed in the next release: lockscreen date and media info are not properly displayed due to an upstream AOSP bug and Pixel Thermometer doesn't appear in our App Store.

We're having some issues with federation and have temporary removed the previous thread until it's resolved. Can a few people confirm they can see this post being federated to their instance? We'll remove it and post the previous thread again once that's confirmed.
