Installed grapheneOS on my pixel (finally) the other day. Actually was loving stock, until it got corrupted due to a bug. Had to factory reset to boot up again. Anyway, used that opportunity to install GOS.

NGL I do miss adaptive features and now playing, but I am liking GOS more and more day by day. Better battery life despite not having adaptive features, more security options like sensor permission and scopes, auto reboot if not unlocked feature and all that.

I use GPay and my bank app on a secondary profile. works seamlessly. Some UI improvements and adaptive features and it will be on par with the stock pixel experience itself.

    I feel not having locwtion sent to google eveey 5 minutes is definatly a reduction in risk mot to mention the sandboxing of apps

      And easily installed FOSS apps, and hardened degoogled default apps, and MAC address randomization, and PIN scrambling, automatic reboots, bruteforce mitigation, and the various other features are all a huge step up from “normie” phone features.
