Most people will still use Instagram TikTok and such. Having GrapheneOS will just hurt the quality and hurt the sales. Most people don't care about privacy, best this will do is satisfy a small minority (who will flash better hardware with GrapheneOS anyway)

    The beauty of Graphene is it's sandboxing and exploit protections are built precisely on assumption that the user will install every single piece of malware out there. The OS doesn't trust anything by default.

    What better hardware? Google is getting increasingly hostile to Graphene. Pixel hardware also seems to be getting worse. And since Pixel is currently the only hardware you can install Graphene on, this is a beneficial thing that provides an alternative that doesn't give money to Google.
