    I looked at GrapheneOS briefly yesterday and it seems like the only supported hardware is really… Google Pixel phones?

      Yes, because they allow you to re-lock the bootloader after flashing a custom ROM. They’re also pretty trivial to unlock the bootloader on in the first place.

        Yes I’ve had several pixels and oneplus phones over the years and run various roms on them, it just seemed like graphene would be an odd mention/recommendation in this community.

      FYI, grapheneos primary aim is security and not offering a degoogled os. The community generally even prefers installing applications through google play, which someone may choose to install.
