No, the Fairphone hardware platform doesn't meet minimal security features of the GOS project. You could say they chose not to compromise on security rather.
Which is alright. It's their project after all. I find myself very happy from my Murena Fairphone (except the launcher, which I hate), so I'll probably be a good Fairphone/Murena client for the years to come.
You could switch the launcher, right?
I did, I use Lawnchair.
Oh ok, cool 👍
