I seemed to have been through this pattern in my interests multiple times and just wait in the between times for something of interest. For hobby/interests I started with programming languages and then moved into understanding hardware

No one says graphene os doesn’t exist, or the developers don’t exist, just that their opinions don’t matter because they are a miniscule fraction of the market. 2% of active devices drives no decisions at Google.

“many people”? Almost no one cared when they bought Pixel is more like it. Many people bought Pixel because they saw it in a store or online. A few people bought Pixel because it was supposed to represent the leading edge of Android and it
