I mostly use apps installed from F-Droid, so I’m not sure how I’ll use the phone, except that it’s sometimes required as a contact method.

Until it does. Google is already closing development, so the GrapheneOS devs will have a more difficult time rebasing their changes to AOSP each snapshot.

    Not exactly. GrapheneOS has an OEM partner and has early access to AOSP changes that aren't public. A huge downside to that is that security preview releases can't be open source until after Google makes the code public.
