This should be a show-stopper for anyone considering microg.

https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/issues/1567

Security is an afterthought for most Android distributions and most software built around them. I went from years of self building AOSP and LineageOS, and after a long hard look at why I was doing it, I stopped and installed GrapheneOS.

While it's an extremely opinionated project and borderline hostile, I trust the developers to do things correctly and will continue to use and recommend for security-conscious individuals.

I wish Pixel devices were easy to acquire in my country or I would have considered this. I was actually looking at it yesterday for my girlfriend's new phone.
