Just to mention it, I tested making that jump with a Pixel 5, with Graphene, and the stock OS for comparison. Anything beyond running Signal and a wallet just feels unstable, and impractical, a feature phone with too many buttons.

Unstable on the stock OS too?

The heavy reliance on web services and poor gesture processing create friction in the stock version, that escalate to gaps and dead ends in Graphene, I tried characterizing that as unstable, should have said unreliable, or something else that exceeds my current English language skills. Both versions fail to create a useful mobile device interface, it wastes an incredible amount of the time and attention of users, which I find highly problematic with a device type that already has an incredibly distracting, disruptive presence in everyday life. All subjective perception obviously.
