I was bit confused why this was notable, but the Pixel 9a just released Thursday. So this is an incredibly fast turnaround for a community OS.

They are starting from an OS that is made to work on these devices.

Reminds me of iOS and iDevices and how even after months they keep stabilising and then they fail to stabilise and then they release the next version after a year with all those bugs intact and accumulated. In this case that OS is literally made for only those devices and vice-versa, in iron claw control of one control freak corporation that has a net worth more than GDPs many countries would nuke for.

Let’s contrast that with a pure community led effort, motivated by freedom, privacy, and safety, that neither controls the OS nor the devices. It’s not what I tried to saltily explain above.

Respectfully, I hope that sunk in.
