I use calyxos personally since 6 month now and it work perfectly
Just installed Calyx and its great so far
What’s better/different about calyx from grapheneOS or even stock android?
I just installed Calyx and I love it, the biggest difference for me is.
1 MicroG instead of sandboxed play services.
2 You can relock the bootloader, which got some of my banking apps to work again.
I don't know if Graphene has these features but some other things I like:
You can revoke fine network access (revoke all or jikust background/mobile/WiFi data per app).
Seedvault can backup your phone over webdav. Unfortunately it uses abd backup so it doesn't backup all apps.
It adopts some Lineage features like snoozing notifications
Microg is objectively worse than sandboxed google play
You can relock bootloader with grapheneos, too.
Been on Calyx 1.5 years myself. Been a solid experience thus far and highly recommended. We have 2 phones on it here now.
