Recently discovered changedetection.io. It nicely filled the need I had. I have it watching a few static forum posts for updates that are communicated that way.

Does that prevent Windows just ninja installing it in a random update?

Windows 12 could be released as early as this year and will be a modular OS, meaning users will have the option to add or remove features, aiming to provide more flexibility.

Does this mean I can remove the AI? /s

From the Article:

GrapheneOS has historically maintained tight integration with Google Pixel hardware, citing security features like Titan M chips, verified boot implementation, and firmware transparency as critical requirements. Expanding to non-Pixel hardware represents a major strategic shift.

Motorola, meanwhile, has been investing heavily in enterprise mobility, device lifecycle management, and security solutions. Integrating GrapheneOS into that portfolio would give the company a strong privacy-focused differentiator in both consumer and enterprise segments.

A lot of wifi routers have a bridge mode you can put them in too. Just grab an old or cheap one, would likely draw less power and be quieter.

Exactly, seems like this should be up to the consumer. The devs can say: pixels have best security, here’s a 2nd and 3rd option, here’s their pros and cons.

Because as much as I approve of privacy measures and security, my phone doesn’t have any lock screen. No pin, no biometrics, nothing.

I work from home, I don’t really travel, I have 4 children. Physical security is annoying. I want grapheneos for data security. I don’t have people trying to steal my phone, I do have people constantly stealing my data.

And without a non-pixel option (fuck google), I’m likely to go for to a competitor because, while their data security might not be as good as graphene, it is better than what I currently have.

Bring on support for more devices, and I’ll likely switch with my next phone.

Oh, is that why everyone hates matrix so much? I’ve been rocking it for years for me and my wife to communicate. It’s been pretty solid. Calls/video calls are hit and miss, but the chat has been great. I’ve never federated it. Account creation is locked down, local auth, etc.

Makes sense. CPU/Mobo/RAM typically go together in a rebuild. Storage, case, PSU, perepherals, GPU can often carry over between builds as they’re all pretty backwards compatible.
