Huge announcement ! @calyxos is now available for the Motorola G32, G42 and G52 ! Why is this a big deal ? Because it helps us further our mission of making #PrivacyByDesign available to the maximum amount of people around the world as we can..

Thank you to #StartSmall and jack dorsey for believing in us, and for the funding that made this possible ! And a BIG thank you to our friends at @LineageOS for their work on platform support for the Motorola phones

Red flags straight away if you ask me…
