This implies the existence of 100 billion Android users, that is roughly 13 times the number of people alive.

I would like to think that the percentage of users who have grapheneOS is maybe 5% of the pixel population. I'm just pulling a number out of my ass right now but basically a lot of people who want the very best privacy and security go for graphene which is limited to only Pixels even though there are more cool phones like the fp5.

Lineage is by far the most popular custom ROM and it has about 3.2 million active devices. Which is about nothing in comparison to 1.22 billion smartphones sold alone in 2022. Barely anyone uses third party ROMs.

There are some people who use other roms like Lineage without the google apps. It's not as good as Graphene but it's better than the OEM version that comes with the phones.
