I’ve been using LineageOS for years, and have been planning for my next phone to be a used Pixel running GrapheneOS. While this announcement from Google sucks shit, it won’t affect me I don’t think. More worrying are the other changes in the pipeline that would stop development of GrapheneOS. I am dying for a working Linux phone.

It won’t apply to GrapheneOS. It only applies to certified OSes and GrapheneOS is not certified because it doesn’t license Google Mobile Services.
I get that. I’m more worried about other planned changes that will affect Grapheme development.
We HAD one. It was called Greenphone.
It didn’t sell.
Now we don’t.
It did sell. And it seems the vendor’s plan was to use it to promote their software platform and nothing more.
Damn, never even heard of it. Surely demand is higher now.
