A suprising candidate for a pixel alternative

Hey everyone,

Hear me out on this please: The Raspberry PI. Here's why:

First and Foremost: It's cheap, very opensource friendly and available.
Updates to the Broadcom Device Drivers and Linux Kernel Updates for Security Issues are likely to be available very quickly. Consider that the Raspberry Pi is used in Industrial Applications a lot these days. There are also more and more parts of the Pi getting reverse engineered drivers over time (Currently Kernel 6.6 is available https://www.raspberrypi.com/software/operating-systems/)
At least some level of support for Android seems to be available but would require some major cleanup https://konstakang.com/devices/rpi5/LineageOS21/
There are at least some Pi TPMs available (https://buyzero.de/products/letstrust-hardware-tpm-trusted-platform-module) and even making our own with any known good TPM manufacturers chip is well within the abilities of the Community. I wonder what things become possible when taking off the TPM is possible...
Support for Secure Boot is there also https://pip.raspberrypi.com/categories/685-whitepapers-app-notes/documents/RP-003466-WP/Boot-Security-Howto.pdf
A GrapheneOS Pi Desktop would be a great Debug and Showcase Plattform for Androids new Desktop Mode.
PIs have been doing well with backward compatibility, so a future raspberry pi is likely to be at least somewhat backward compatible.

I'd love to see if this was possible and what parts we might need, if there's a possible working configuration i'll do my best to test it out.

Hi there! I appreciate the effort and thought put into this post.

Unfortunately, the raspberry Pi is way too far from being close to meeting the project's requirements.

In case you haven't already, please take a list at our official list of requirements here:

Hey matchboxbananasynergy,

thank you for your friendly answer. The depth of security features implemented in GrapheneOS is just something else.
