Also your device is statistically supported by GrapheneOS or an alternative like ubuntu mobile
Can you explain what you mean by this? The GrapheneOS devices list shows only certain Pixel, Nexus, and Samsung phones, and the Ubuntu Touch devices page lists only 43 devices that support the two most-recent software releases.
I used a generous definition of “supported” to include old firmware that GrapheneOS doesn’t support any longer on their latest releases but a release did exist at one point. It’s further down the FAQ.
Basically, I gave the benefit of the doubt and still the statement is still demonstrably false because the largest set of phones “supported” is still a tiny subsection of all phones in the market.
I get your sentiment but I think you meant LineageOS and not Graphene. I’m running Graphene now but there is only a small handful of supported devices due to its strict security hardware requirements that most phones don’t meet.
The next best alternative (and technically the big dog in the room) is LineageOS. Preferably with no google-play-services.

Nexus and Samsung? I can only see the word pixel there.
