- _rdvw 2y agoit did https://divestos.org/pages/faq#microgEnable https://divestos.org/pages/faq#microgEnable
- notpushkin 2y agoCan confirm, I’m using it myself and it seems to work almost flawlessly.
- aesh2Xa1 2y agoI can explain. The first link actually contains multiple comments -- the complete discussion is linked. For a specific example within it, it does explicitly state "17.1 and higher have an unprivileged microG feature now: https://divestos.org/pages/faq#appCompatibility https://divestos.org/pages/faq#appCompatibility" in 2023. The comment was by the DivestOS project author. The second link, also from 2023, starts with "Latest release of my DivestOS can now run microG in an unprivileged manner:" -- also by the DivestOS author. I think that covers it for your reading of the links, no? Anyway, the DivestOS project did have an implementation of microG, and it was sandboxed. As for my comment about projects goals, I also selected those two links because both include such commentary about DivestOS' implementation in relation to project goals and to the GrapheneOS implementation.
- NotPractical 2y agoThanks for clearing that up. I should've read your post more closely. To be honest I never checked the second link because I follow the Android privacy/security scene pretty closely and I was already pretty confident that if DivestOS added support for that I'd have already heard about it. My bad!
