Graphene Bois No Like.

>>"If you want to see more devices supported sooner, you should get to work on identifying good devices with full support for alternative operating systems with verified boot, etc. and then start working on integrating and testing support".

Fair point. The next paragraph is gold. Basically says GrapheneOS will bend the industry to their will (design better phones, capable of running it)... rather than making allowances and compromises so they can increase adoption through larp sovereignty.

>>"It should also be clear that the expectation is for people to buy a device to run GrapheneOS, rather than GrapheneOS supporting their existing devices. This will only become more true if GrapheneOS is successful enough to accomplish the goal of having devices produced based on an SoC reference design with minor improvements for privacy and security. Broad device support is the opposite of what the project wants to achieve in the long term"

So, we should be lobbying phone makers to raise their game and re-evaluate their incentives. Samsung is a lost cause and some other brands are just spyware in flimsy packaging. But there may be some hope for Nokia etc.
