Finger grooves developed by Karl Nill are okay.
So, a P30/VP9 or actual Nill grips, like the SW39s I have on my Combat Magnum.
Otherwise no, the Glock ones are uncomfortable to me.

Glock ones fit me poorly enough that I’d like to remove them from my Gen4s that aren’t available as Gen5s.

After I filed them down on my 17-4, I regretted it, thinking I should just learn the gun and not what I thought the gun should be. Slave to fashion? Perhaps. I can't say I shoot the pistol better without the finger grooves tho I think aspects of my shooting are improving. I think because it's a process of practice and attention tho, not the lack of finger grooves.
This is what my finger groove removal looks like:
My fingers don't actually sit in the grooves. They sit across them at an angle which results in blisters during high round count training.
I had some removed by @Texaspoff about 5 years ago.

Will Post my step by step later this am
Finger Groove Removal
Unload the weapon
Make sure the weapon is unloaded
Field strip the weapon
Using blue or green paint tape, tape off the areas of the grip that you ARE NOT sanding down
Put the frame in a vise between two paperback books
Technique 1
using strips of increasing grits of sandpaper-50/100/400/800, shoeshine stroke the grooves off going low and slow.
Technique 2
Using a dremel tool, remove about 50% of the finger grooves first, then use 1 above
Technique 3
Using a dremel tool, remove about 95% of the finger grooves first, then use 1 above
The dremel will take off material quickly. The dremel can generate enough heat to burn a hole through the frame. Be very careful using the dremel.
FWIW/YMMV Greatly.
PS-if you have any doubt re using the dremel or if you have never used a dremel before on polymer, just use Technique #1.
