No, I use stock Pixel firmware. Google did a phenomenal job on it. The launcher is very good.

I know there are privacy concerns for some folks, but I have a smart home so that ship has sailed for me. I secure my Linux desktop and enjoy convenience on my mobile.

Honestly you could not get me to go back to iphone after using Pixel. I still use a iMac, MacBook Pro, and iPad Pro though. I'm not a fanboy for any brand, and android tablets suck compared to iPad. The phones are hands down better devices in my usecase though.

I appreciate you sharing your perspective and experience! If I pay the switching costs, I think Iā€™d have to go for a degoogled experience. I tried android for a short time and some things were way way better. Like Brave browser. It was so neat to have what felt like a real web browser on a phone. Hm. Food for thought.

Just be aware that rooted android phones have issues with banking apps, and you'll lose push notifications. But if you know what you're getting into, the Pixel hardware is great!

I ran graphene for two days. That's as long as I lasted. šŸ˜‚
