Is GrapheneOS the best, and why?

I won't use GrapheneOS. This video basically explains why: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4To-F6W1NT0

I use my stock ROM and followed the steps from this guide, with some changes like using Shizuku and App Ops, instead of AppOpsX: https://lemmy.ml/post/128667

Interesting, I went the other way around. I started with a similar setup as is discussed in the post before switching to Graphene. Google has Android setup in such a way it allows it them to navigate around restrictions established on the device. I wanted to install a privacy focused ROM so I would truly have control over what information Google can access, as it can be fully sandboxed with Graphene. Does suck to see the founder of Graphene is kind of a dick. Not to sure if this reduces the privacy and security Graphene provides, what do you make of Louis Rossmann's video? Seems to me as if he swapped his ROM due to customer service issues and not the code.
