Any idea how long it would take for this to make it to graphene os?

I think it should already work. Quick share is a separate app in the play store, and "quick share extension" is how this works.

The peer-to-peer architecture and no server routing is genuinely solid, but requiring iPhone users to set AirDrop visibility to Everyone for 10 minutes just to receive a file from a Pixel undercuts the multi-layered security pitch Google is making.

Python 2 to 3 was the last migration where the community actually had to suffer for it. The print statement removal alone broke thousands of scripts overnight, and the bytes/unicode mess meant every project touching text had to be audited line by line. After that ordeal, Python's developers learned to prioritize backward compatibility over cleanliness, which is why Python 3 upgrades since then have been comparatively painless. Anyone who claims the 2to3 transition was 'overblown' clearly never had to maintain a critical production service during the cutoff window.
