Not actually sure, as the phrase wasnt as popular back then.

Graphene does let you re-lock the bootloader. IIRC, whether an app works depends on whether they require SafetyNet full, or just basic. I have so far only found one app that refuses to work. However… it looks like MitID was recently updated and no longer works.

Starting on 2024-06-12, MitID have started using Google Play Integrity API during activation. This means that new installations will no longer work in GrapheneOS nor any other non-stock Android, as they are not certified by Google and will not pass the required checks. The app still works (for now) if you managed to get it activated before that date.

Now on month 26 of “taking a few months off to recharge.” After 2 years, I realized no one in tech wants me on my terms, so I got a couple of shitty part-time jobs instead. Fuck 'em.
I do have to admit it sucks sometimes of course, but now I never lay awake at night thinking about work. When I leave work, I dont give it much additional thought beyond making sure I get enough hours (because even between two jobs, I cant afford daycare for both kids over the summer.)

People who can figure out how to monetize (ie, get people to pay for) those ideas are the ones that get paid big. If you cant figure out how to make money from it, it is not likely to magically work out later.

Once a bit older, maybe 7-8, I setup an old laptop with debian and allow-listed network connection, etc. Let them play with it and gave them learning activities.
Presumably demand is why.
Okay, this didn’t make me twitch at all. Nope.
