GrapheneOS evidently wants to helping people manage threat actors in their life. Having a terminal with full control of your own hardware would help with that goal because it lets you further control what your device and the software thereon does (there are apps you don't fully trust but need for daily life, where you might want to do TLS interception or modify what it stored about you before connecting to the internet again)

I simply agreed with the person who posted this sentiment by mentioning another place where an organisation acts contrary to its stated goal (Signal wants privacy, but also your phone number? I can come up with reasons like that it costs money and thus helps against spam, but it's still at odds and different solutions and opinions are possible)

If someone comes to one of my open source projects' bugtrackers and says "I want you to implement X", I can say "enjoy implementing that", or I can say "this is a bad idea because reasons". GrapheneOS does the latter. Responding to that, waylaying arguments, is not the same as demanding free work. They're free to not care

He directly answered your question, gave you an alternative, which in your reply you didn't even acknowledge, but moved the goalposts.

People who spend huge quantities of time trolling somebody who makes an excellent mobile operating system are really quite something. I used to think he was overselling the quantity and quality of it, but this post's comments have really turned me around on that one. So: thanks for that.

I'm not sure where you think goalposts were moved (especially since my initial response was "we've had this conversation"; it's not a new position when they keep reposting the same fallacies) or what makes you think I'm posting here just to annoy some people I've never even met and whose work is generally good. What in the world even is "high quality trolling"? But if you want to feel like you've found evidence for GrapheneOS' regular claims that everyone is always attacking them then I probably can't dissuade you of that no matter how much more time I waste reiterating the exact same, eh, goalpost¹ you called it I think

It does bother me that I spend time answering in a clear way, since apparently it wasn't clear previously so I spend more time, and then it gets dismissed as disingenuous flamebait, or whatever the definition of trolling is

¹ (Not sure, as a non-native speaker, but to me that word sounds like there might be a material objective beyond coming to a common understanding. I don't have such an ulterior objective. If I'm right about that connotation then please read "point" in place of this word)
