Well, it took Google long enough to take away this workaround, if you think about it. I wish Alphabet burned in hell, let it be clear.

GrapheneOS user here. It seems to work right now.

Graphene also doesn't really need Aurora, it's fine.

Just worked for me. So maybe they implemented a workaround.

Successfully updated an app just now.

[–] BlackLaZoR@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Time to install it. They wouldn't block it if it sucked right?

[–] Ingwerperium@thelemmy.club 2 points 2 months ago

It's still running with me.
