Custom ROMs have had just about enough of being Android's second-class citizens (www.androidauthority.com)

TL;DR

  • Efforts like Graphene OS face increasing pressure from apps that refuse to run on non-standard Android.
  • The custom ROM project characterizes Google’s approach to device attestation as incomplete and flawed.
  • Graphene OS is prepared to take legal action if Google won’t let it pass Play Integrity checks.

Ironically, if Graphene would succeed, it would lead to a system that's every bit as locked down as a manufacturer's Android. GrapheneOS would also not allow you to have root etc.

IMO Graphene wants a place at the big player table. They're not in it for user freedoms.
