You can't equate actions from a part of the community with actions by the project. If you would see any bigotry by a GrapheneOS community member, please report it to the moderators. Bullying, toxcity and misinfo are not allowed. Action will be taken.

I havent noticed a lot of that in the community myself, in which im very active. Its exceptional in my eyes. Common though is technical criticism on other projects when people ask advice about it or want a comparison with alternative. Also common is people being fed up by harassment by other projects.

The founder of /e/OS repeatdely attacks GrapheneOS in random internet threads that are only mention GrapheneOS. This contrast with the approach of GrapheneOS where they will only do a comparison with /e/OS in reponse to posts where both are mentioned and compared by others. Or, in reponse of wrong comparisons in the media or harassment (personal attacks etc.) stemming from them.

F-Droid does also have some maintainers that engaged in personal attacks against the GOS founder. And anyway what do you expect the project to do if people ask whether to get apps from Play Store or F-Droid? Pretend there is no technical security difference? If people ask questions, the project and community try to inform.

There is big conflict with Debian or Linux kernel at all. They also dont mismarket themselves or spread misinfo about GrapheneOS. They are concerned though that both heavily used projects lack a security focus.
