They want you to use an OS which doesn't provide firmware updates and therefore doesn't protect you from serious known vulnerabilities. The firmware is still present when using an OS not updating it. Pretending as if the hardware and firmware isn't closed source by not updating the firmware simply harms users. They're a group known for having nonsensical, inconsistent beliefs and spreading misinformation/spin to promote them. Stop getting info from charlatans.
They say that GNU is spreading misinformation and “stop getting info from charlatans”?
Graphene is totally open source, nothing is stopping fairphone from maintaining a port for their phones
GOS did reach out to them in the past, but they couldn’t reach a mutual understanding for support regarding hardware level patches for the fairphone 3 I believe. There’s a git issue about it
I see no reason the fairphone 5 couldn’t have GOS support, sure it’s missing some of the security requirements, but fair phone could build the branch and make it public
