other options besides graphene exist, like lineage OS that work on a ton of different phones. and sure graphene requires google hardware but nobody says you have to buy the hardware from google direct. buying used is different than buying from google
It's also an option many people would be fine with. I'm okay with Google having my money. Paying companies for products is perfectly fine. I just don't want them to have my data and invade my privacy
