Almost all GrapheneOS developers aren't online facing anymore due to violent attacks and credible threats on the few people that did work under their real name, so it's mostly just me or MetropleX on my lonesome.

Was here way before doing anything for GrapheneOS! What I was doing on Stacker News got the team's attention.
Can you tell us more about this?
The founder of GrapheneOS was swatted (prank calling armed police to their location to try and escalate an attack) multiple times up to April 2023.
A past contributor received bogus legal threats to himself sent to his university, which he released:

The current GrapheneOS lead developer is Ukrainian who had been conscripted in the war there.
We've been aware of people in other projects recieving a toxic working environment. The DivestOS developer quit over this.
When you're taking on the cartels, this is the result.
