OK, thanks.

Not really that helpful, it's just more he said/she said.

Grapheneos is a pretty poor choice of example, it has its own issues, they have conflicts with many others (see France pullout), they have openly fought with Murena, e/os, fairphone, among others. Plus, grapheneos likes to throw shade on "less permissive licenses", which is really weird, considering they use an MIT license, whose loose terms is abused by many not-so-great companies.

The lead of grapheneos is just as controversial as futo, gets into public spats with others, generally difficult to work with, etc.

I say this using GrapheneOS myself.

I'm not a fan of the Curtis Yarvin association, though.

The people running these companies aren't perfect. Sometimes they aren't ideal, either. But I'd rather use Immich than Google photos and heliboard than Swiftkey.
