Pixel with Calyx or Graphene?
Discussion
I don't and won't buy a pixel. I have been using lineageos for years without complaint.
That's fair, and I'd say it's easier on your conscience to buy second hand through sites like Swappa and Backmarket instead of from Google directly, but it's dependent on the person.
Typing from a refurbished Pixel 6 Pro that I might upgrade from next year... the hardware-level carrier issues kill me.
That's the only way I'd ever buy one. But I also just don't want to use their hardware.
It's the closest experience I'll have to owning a Nexus phone (RIP), but I understand that distaste to have anything Google at all, even if it's only the hardware.
What are you using Lineage on?
I'm not particularly sure if I should doxx my hardware on a perma-protocol, at least out in the open. I'd gladly take the conversation off nostr if you'd like.
If you're concerned with metadata leakage and the like on Nostr, we can use OxChat for hardware discussion.
Don't have much else outside of this messaging-wise.
