      To be honest I do not see any reason to use Lineage with Pixel while there is GrapheneOS… But maybe there will be some users of it: it is always better to have more free open OS

        My understanding is that Google wallet won’t work with grapheneos. It does with lineage ( with play integrity fix ). This is the only reason I use lineage. I’d love to not have any Google services but Google wallet is just such a huge value add. I don’t carry a physical wallet at all and it’s great. I wish there was a libre alternative to Google wallet for tap to pay, but sadly it does not look like that’s happening any time soon.

      its alright, it kept my “supposed to be dead” phone to keep on running with latest stuff, i like the built in firewall, but if you’re privicy focused then this is not for you.

      Upgrading android versions did a surprise factory reset for me. Never used it again after that.

      Custom Roms are only viable if official android support has dropped and you are no longer getting upgrades.
