Just saw a meme on Bsky about some dipshit trying to force their 92 year old grandma to use Signal because “opsec”. Someone in the replies says “average grapheneos user”.

A GrapheneOS mod proceeds to reply saying “Not really,-“ and then talk about how any GOOD grandchild would in fact make their aging tech-illiterate grandma use Signal and how it’s actually morally correct to do that and-

Like holy shit I’m going to use Graphene because fuck Google but Graphene’s team really does believe that the FBI is going to break your door down if you use iMessage once

@shio graphene’s social people (person??) have a strange aura

@shio Nice rage bait you got there, that's not even close to what they said.

“Our amazing fantastic perfect OS refuses to give you face recognition because what if the CIA teleports into your house and hits you with hammers. We DO however encourage you to NEVER use a default fucking messaging app and to install 15 other apps to talk to your family because THE OPSEC!!!!!!!!”

@shio same vibes as some foss evangelists

Like respectfully Graphene if you want more users maybe try actually being respectful to your users instead of being so far up your own ass that you can see into your stomach

@shio i think they need to stop name searching and using feeds that mention "grapheneos". and then trying to argue with people who says anything relatively negative about the project. its so fucking annoying man they just never know when to shut up

@shio if they’re replying “not really” to that, are they saying the average grapheneos user isn’t a good grandchild because they wouldn’t do that?

@noisytoot I think their argument was that using Signal and forcing your entire family to do so is actually the responsible thing to do provided you teach them how to use it properly, which I find kind of ridiculous
