Besides buying a new phone, is there anything I can do to not be affected by this and still use my phone?

Are you using it? I was looking at their gitlab forge and it'll take me some time to understand what happens where across the 100s of repos there.

ok. I'll see how they're doing that. Anyway need a new test phone this year so maybe I can flash the current Graphene test phone with that, and see what's what.

Will do! May take a couple of months because I don't have a baseline, and this needs a whole bunch of custom ingestion scripts to see what they change - the os collection alone is 173 repos and then there is tons and tons of firmware.

Once I have something set up for this I may be able to compare this and Graphene (on any level of detail) though, that would be nice.
