thinking about paying $500 for a pixel 6 to nuke it and install either lineage or graphene. Main reasons: security, I want to degoogle, hate bloatware, I want complete freedom to choose what apps I want on my device, smartphones are notoriously known for their short support cycles (to me 4 years is not enough).

what I don’t know is why graphene developers have chosen proprietary hardware from what has to be one of the most foss unfriendly companies

    Pixel 6, works like a charm, easy to install, frequent updates and feels like a better version of android.

      frequent updates and feels like a better version of android.

      why is this relevant if I plan to nuke the device and install graphene or lineage on it?

        I read it as them saying Graphene and lineage have frequent updates. They didn’t specify which. And that Graphene feels better than Android.

        So it seems 100% relevant or did you just misread what they wrote?
