As far as I know, GrapheneOS is a fork of Copperhead and broadly understood as its successor.

Exactly, original CopperheadOS is continued but the more I read about the reasons of the split, the more I tend to turn away from CH OS and rely on Graphene OS.

Maybe or know some background info?

GrapheneOS is the original open source project and was founded in 2014, a year before Copperhead was incorporated. A brief overview of the history and copyright ownership is available at grapheneos.org/#history. CopperheadOS is a fork of our legacy codebase by a scam artist.

Look at the public record. Look at the code and the history of the project for yourself. Talk to users and observers of the project who were around from early on and witnessed all of this unfold. Can see for yourself that CopperheadOS is not open source and forked from my code.

Can see for yourself that it was founded as an open source project before Copperhead was incorporated. Can see from the code that the attributions of ownership/authorship have always been to me. Can see that I always kept the company and open source project at arms length.

Go ahead and look back at it using archive.org. Look at how the donations page said that the money was going to the open source project / developers, not the company. Many of you in the Bitcoin community donated to me and I never actually received any of that money.

The money donated by the Bitcoin community was stolen by James Donaldson. It was explicitly stated the money was going to me and the project but it didn't. We got most of the PayPal donations but the rest was largely stolen / embezzled. Can't see how you folks can support him.

Literally supporting and promoting a closed source, proprietary fork of legacy GrapheneOS code by fraudsters who paid cheap, inexperienced developers to partially port forward my legacy codebase while adding DRM / tracking to it. Look for yourself! Don't take my word for it...

And don't try to tell me that I shouldn't be upset by people supporting an abuser who has harmed and harassed me for years. When I see people who claim to support me being complicit in causing harm to me and the open source project I've put my life into, that really hurts.
