     I'm using lineageOS without any googly bits. Recently got a new phone but Pixels are too overpriced for the hw to justify buying one for graphene.

     @dushman mood, I'm using a Pixel 6 I got second hand years ago, so I've gotten my $200 worth a couple times over. I'll run this until support goes out for them and then go bargain hunting again.

     @kirby @dushman I like it a lot. It has a lot of the "curated experience" vibe where updates are just installed for you, default settings are correct with less need to fiddling, that kind of thing.

     @kirby @dushman Graphene comes with Vanadium built in as a de-googled Chrom(ium) replacement.

     @dushman Apple still hasn't turned this on for local storage despite everyone pissing themselves endlessly over it being added to iCloud

     Apple has done similar shit like scanning people's photos without consent, they ain't better. At least with some Android phones you can choose what software to run.
