One annoying thing with #GrapheneOS is that connecting to open #WiFi is not straight forward. Since usually such services required to accept some credentials on a website before using it and this website doesn’t automatically popup.
One usually can guess the site by using typical patterns respective to the WiFi name and sometimes there is redirect in place if the guess was close enough. After arriving on this domain it is recommended to save the URL for ease of use next time. Saving it in a markdown file is a good choice, since one can name the link as seen fit.
A further suggestion is to create a WiFi book app (assuming it doesn’t exist already) where all the credential sites exist.
GrapheneOS has the same automatic captive portal detection and handling as the stock Pixel OS. Connectivity/captive portal checks are enabled by default. It sounds like you disabled the feature, which is an option provided by GrapheneOS but isn't recommended. Please read the information on connectivity checks we provide at https://grapheneos.org/faq#default-connections. These detect captive portals on any connection and trigger an app for handling it. It allows handling them without disabling VPN.
@GrapheneOS thanks for the clarification and nice to know what that setting did.
