I mostly use apps installed from F-Droid, so I’m not sure how I’ll use the phone, except that it’s sometimes required as a contact method.

Isn't Graphene still Android? What's stopping Google from turfing AOSP so you won't be able to sideload to them either?

We need something completely independent from Android. Would be great if phone manufactures would make their pocket computers easier to interface like tradition PCs.

I think (thought i am not sure) that this thing will be made with google services so just removing them should do, if not, you can just fork and modify

AOSP is still open-source. If they do, it can be forked.
