No, not really. This is not a real alternative. Google will still try to kill alternative ROMs and it's just a matter of time before GrapheneOS will no longer be maintainable. A push for true Linux mobile OS is needed. Time is running out.

People can donate to all of these things if they wish - I dont see why GrapheneOS can't also be given funds even just for the work that they're doing currently.

Sure, you can donate. I'm just saying it's not a good solution to the problem at hand. But it's a good solution to other problems and it will work short term.

Won't help them much when Google makes Android closed sourced and hides security fixes from them.
