is Graphene a “big name”? They talk a big game and are probably one of the biggest alternative phone OSes but all results I can find are putting them at 250k users and less than 2% of the Android market share.
But, more importantly: Do they at all care about US government contracts? Red Had have RHEL. ubuntu have whatever they call their premium OS for enterprise users. Google and Apple are obvious.
Genuine question:

GrapheneOS has a deal with a hardware manufacturer, Motorola. I’d consider this refusal to be a big deal on those grounds alone
Frankly I think they are the largest os vendor that is going to take a principled stance on this.
Big enough for a headline, not big enough to make a difference.
I would go so far as to say they are only big enough to make an updoot-bait headline at that.
