Graphene only supports devices for as long as the manufacturer does, maybe slightly longer.

Doesn't seem like the old CyanogenMod days where you could slap that shit on there forever.

You expect them to backport security updates to pixel 3 or whatever for free when even the manufacturer doesn't?

Isn't that what Lineage does?

They only backport (some) OS patches, the firmware doesn't get updated after the vendor classifies a device as EOL.
