While the GrapheneOS project itself has not issued an official statement regarding the change in leadership, we will keep you updated as more information becomes available.
The announcement comes shortly after prominent right-to-repair and open-source activist Louis Rossmann uploaded a [video](https://invidious.privacyguides.net/watch?v=Dl1x1Dy-ej4) explaining his decision to remove GrapheneOS from his personal phone. Rossmann, previously a strong advocate for GrapheneOS on his YouTube channel, had earlier played a role in securing a $40,000 grant for the development of the open-source project.

In the video, Rossmann shared screenshots of direct messages he received from Micay via [Matrix](https://www.privacyguides.org/en/real-time-communication/), where Micay demanded the deletion of a YouTube comment that he perceived as critical. Micay claims that certain [screenshots](https://invidious.privacyguides.net/watch?v=Dx7CZ-2Bajg) showcasing his online behavior—which Rossmann described as "disappointing"—were fabricated, but was unwilling to clarify which examples specifically were misleading or fake in an interview.

Despite these recent developments, GrapheneOS remains one of our top recommendations for replacing the stock Android OS on your phone, because it provides a de-Googled Android experience while still retaining security features which many alternatives lack. Additionally, the project provides a unique Google compatibility, allowing users to optionally utilize Google Play Services without invasive system-level integrations. We will continue to closely monitor the situation and adjust our recommendations as necessary, but we remain optimistic about GrapheneOS's ability to move forward with its announced plans and continue its development without incident.
