We don't plan to make official GrapheneOS releases for any more devices without MTE. If we decided to provide support for the Pixel 11 series, it likely won't be branded as GrapheneOS to make it clear it isn't on the same level.

It would be inconsistent to require Motorola to provide MTE support and then to support the Pixel 11 without it.

There are no phones directly supported by AOSP. Motorola is helping us support their devices and port our features to them. We have to do an immense amount of work on it ourselves for Pixels and already did a lot of it for the Pixel 11 devices. Other devices are missing more than MTE.

Regarding the differentiated branding, I've been hoping for a GrapheneLite for many years now.

Regarding direct AOSP support, there are many devices that work fine with just the generic system image, which I'd count as direct AOSP support.
