I'm surprised to find this in CopperHeadOS source code...
Google servers are used for connectivity check.
Or did I miss a patch or something?

I know GrapheneOS but that's not the question ^^
And GrapheneOS also uses Google servers for connectivity check unless I miss something

Where's the irony? I think you misunderstand the purpose and focus of the project along with the stage of development. The only hardware that would be better than Pixels is custom hardware catered to it and that's not currently something realistic... sorry.

It's not advertised and the main page makes it incredibly clear that it's in a very early state of being revived and developed. The device support section clearly explains the hardware requirements. The currently supported devices offer the best privacy/security. No irony at all.

The usage guide clearly lists out all of the default connections made by the OS with an explanation for each one. Changes to an area like this require thought and clear reasoning. That's the approach taken to GrapheneOS development in general. It's not in a rush to change things.
grapheneos.org/#early-stage-o is the very first section on the site for a reason. The project is hard at work getting things going again and the focus is not bundling apps, changing servers, making a theme, etc. and it's certainly not being promoted or advertised at this point...

There are drawbacks to having the device broadcast itself as a GrapheneOS device to the network. Blending in with the crowd has advantages. It would be trivial to point these at a GrapheneOS server by default but I haven't because it probably needs to be a user-facing GUI option.
