In the specified comment GrapheneOS explicitly stated that they have no opposition against non-free binaries and proprietary programs. Doesn't Free software requires it to not host non free binaries? This is not even firmware

But what about endorsing play store when alternatives are available? Yes it's sandboxes but then also other more open solutions exists

Is it really endorsement to offer the user upon initial setup to install it, along with fdroid?

I'd say that's just general compatibility, most users have at least one play store app they can't just stop using, in my case that would be the banking apps I need to be able to pay online.

They are actually against Fdroid and endorse only play store. ONLY play store is available in their official appstore.
