If you visit the grapheneos forum, it is generally not a preferable choice, for security reasons.

Yes, because it makes a few sacrifices in order to allow you to have your own repositories such as certificate pinning, which honestly, I'm okay making those sacrifices because with things like accreacent It's nothing but Google Play by another name and another company or whatever, because a government can go to them and require them take down an app where that cannot happen on fdroid, because the developer can just throw up an onion service and host their repository on that.
