Community
Chat
GrapheneOS has a very active community primarily based around the official chat rooms. Our chat rooms are bridged across both Discord and Matrix so you can choose your preferred platform.
Matrix is a federated service similar to email where you can choose your provider and has end-to-end encryption for private chats. Matrix can be a more privacy friendly option but has significant downsides including lag, weak moderation tools and the rooms needing to be regularly recreated due to bugs in the protocol for reaching consensus on room state between servers. Discord will automatically filter shock images including gore and CSAM (Child Sex Abuse Material) posted by the malicious groups frequently raiding our Matrix chat rooms.
Discord invite link: https://grapheneos.org/discord.
The links below will take you to the Element web client, which uses matrix.org as the homeserver by default. However, you can use the client and homeserver of your choice to join our rooms.
#general:grapheneos.org | Best place to request support, ask questions or get involved in the project |
#offtopic:grapheneos.org | Discuss topics not strictly related to GrapheneOS |
#dev:grapheneos.org | Discuss GrapheneOS app and OS development |
#testing:grapheneos.org | Provide feedback on Alpha and Beta channel app and OS releases |
#releases:grapheneos.org | Release announcements |
#infra:grapheneos.org | Infrastructure monitoring and discussion |
#media:grapheneos.org | Discuss GrapheneOS in news articles and other media coverage |
The official GrapheneOS space groups together all of the official rooms along with members of the community who join the space. You can join the space at #community:grapheneos.org
Forum
We have an official forum for longer form posts, which will be more publicly accessible and easier to search. We are currently using Flarum for our forum.
Contacting the project
Do not contact us with offers to sell us products or services.
Please don't contact the GrapheneOS project or developers to request support / device support / features or to report bugs. Use the community platforms and issue trackers listed below. The developers are active on the Matrix room but the broader community can usually answer most questions, and this allows the developers to focus their time and energy on the project.
Email is the preferred way to contact the project. Twitter direct messages are checked much less frequently. A public @reply in a tweet is not a good way to contact the project. It is not considered sending a message by Twitter and is not queued up as a message to be read, only as a regular notification that is likely to be missed or forgotten.
Please do not send multiple copies / versions of the same email to different addresses. Either send it to a single address or CC the other addresses. In general, it's the same person handling every email address, and they don't need to see multiple copies of the same email in their inbox.
You can contact contact@grapheneos.org for topics related to GrapheneOS. Please don't send emails unrelated to GrapheneOS to this address.
The security@grapheneos.org address is for reporting high priority security issues related to GrapheneOS. Please don't send other kinds of emails to this address. It is not a way of increasing the priority of emails that are not security reports. Your emails will be treated as a much lower priority if you misuse this address.
The official Twitter account for the project is @GrapheneOS which is used for official announcements.
The official Mastodon account for the project is @GrapheneOS@grapheneos.social which is used for official announcements.
