A letter to the CalyxOS community

Sad news - I have been very happy with CalyxOS, and not sure if I would want to continue using it without security updates or move to another ROM on my Fairphone 4. It seems perhaps that I would anyway need to reflash when they get to the point of resuming updates? Anyone get a clearer reading on that than me?

I have been contemplating trying out Ubuntu Touch which has according to their site 100% compatability with Fairphone 4 now, but there are some functionality that I think would struggle without, and if I can’t get it working as I want, I wouldn’t be able to reflash CalyxOS now. Getting a new phone to install GrapheneOS is not an option for me.

What are other people here using CalyxOS going to do to maintain a modicum of privacy on their mobile devices?

    I’m wondering about LOS re-locking on particular devices. DivestOS used to allow that, not sure if only on pixels, but if divestOS which was based on LOS could, I don’t see how that code can not be ported over upstream LOS. Have anyone seen an effort similar to divestOS in this regard?
