> What's the difference between an AOSP Android phone and a Linux phone?

One is actually working without draining the battery in an hour and has an actually working security model.

Sorry for the tongue in cheek reply, but I am in complete agreement with you.

If you use a famous and popular vendor like Samsung, if you're really really lucky your 0-day will take 9 months to be fixed.

      It cannot be compiled as it is, so it's nothing that runs on any phone.

        I definitely would switch to Lineage or /e/OS or anything more vanilla if I had a Samsung phone.

        GrapheneOS is completely open source and based on AOSP. As is LineageOS. What‘s your point?

          It's self evident. Just stop refusing to see it.
