DivestOS

DivestOS was an <a href="/facts/Free_and_open-source_software/1cHtjLCB">open source</a>, <a href="/facts/Android_(operating_system)/nNyHb0xz">Android</a> <a href="/facts/Operating_system/8XTuvMh2">operating system</a>. It was a soft <a href="/facts/Fork_(software_development)/D6khxhpr">fork</a> of <a href="/facts/LineageOS/2EjbG71g">LineageOS</a> that aimed to increase security and privacy with support for <a href="/facts/End-of-life_product/LaKyw5RU">end-of-life</a> devices. It removed many <a href="/facts/Proprietary_software/9zcskxYL">proprietary</a> blobs and pre-installed open source apps.
DivestOS builds were signed with release-keys so <a href="/facts/Bootloader/6sNpcLMK">bootloaders</a> may be <a href="/facts/Bootloader_unlocking/1s6WE06p">re-locked</a> on supported devices. An automated <a href="/facts/Common_Vulnerabilities_and_Exposures/r6uEABNB">CVE</a> patcher was used to patch the kernels against many known vulnerabilities.
DivestOS included few default applications. <a href="/facts/F-Droid/yNEV0XLW">F-Droid</a> was included, as well as Hypatia, a "real-time malware scanner" and Carrion, a <a href="/facts/Robocall/mhHL6uBH">robocall</a> blocker.
