    Those aren’t modules in of themselves, more like plugin frameworks for hooking into the Android kernel/deep system functions that others can write plugins for.

    LSposed can do more “cool stuff” but it’s also a much bigger pain to keep it hidden from root detectors. I occasionally use an app called Card Emulator Pro that allows me to duplicate and then emulate any NFC card I tap to it that needs an LSposed module to work

    Magisk Modules, can do less but is much easier to keep root hidden, most of my MM are for hiding root (like playcurl) but I particularly like isodrive for being able to use my phone to store and use bootable ISO images

    As someone who used to change ROMs and kernels almost weekly back in the day (when I had more time lmao), honestly, not really.

    Stock android already provides so much these days that used to take a custom ROM to obtain. And what isn’t, can be provided via a LSposed module or Magisk Module, which is MUCH easier to handle than a full tilt custom ROM

    There’s, one, exception though. If you want a custom ROM for a specific purpose then there might still be some utility there. Like GrapheneOS for privacy focus






  • Piefed has gone from being rarely if ever even mentioned at all to, in just the last few days, being mentioned hundreds if not thousands of times a day in threads on virtually any topic, makes me highly suspicious.

    You make interesting points, but for this specific thing, it almost certainly has to do with the .ee shutdown which was announced just a few days ago, apparently PieFed has fantastic comm transfer tooling so that’s why it’s probably been exploding in discussions since .ee has a number of large comms that are trying to figure out their next steps
