If it supported GrapheneOS I would be using one too.
The choice of only supporting Pixels comes from GrapheneOS's side, not Fairphone. Fairphone got some great ROMs support, and even have an official partnership with one of them (e/OS).
I know that. So I stand corrected that I should have written "If it were supported by GrapheneOS..."
Doesn't change, that its a show stopper for me, though.
That's fair. We all have our needs, and I find mine in Fairphone + e/OS, which is nice. And when I upgrade, I get to give my parents an almost new, still supported phone, which is nice.
