I have a Pixel 6 Pro. Different phone, but same generation and same SoC so the experience should probably large be the same. I had zero problems installing GrapheneOS. The web installer was much easier to use than recoveries like TWRP. Performance is really good, fast and smooth. Can't tell the difference between GOS and stock. Hope that answers your questions.

You're seriously gonna believe a "trust me bro" from big tech?

Yes, it is. I mean, GrapheneOS is the gold standard for privacy&security, but even stock Pixel is good. Think of it like this: on stock Pixel, only Google is tracking you, not Google + Samsung, or Google + Xiaomi. Just Google. It's guaranteed to be a step up from all other Android phones, stock or not.

Good take. IMO, lots of people in the privacy community need to hear this take.

Vanadium for when I need to log in and Cromite for daily browsing.

Mullvad and Brave on desktop. Vanadium and Cromite/Brave on Android.

I started caring about privacy at the tail end of high school. I started running LineageOS with microG then. Now that I'm in college, I've quit most mainstream social media, and I run GrapheneOS.

Nice, I got a renewed one from Amazon this year for $330. It was as good as new, no scratches whatsoever, battery health was at 99% and still had 3 months of warranty left.

It's too expensive for me. Not worth it when a used Pixel is way cheaper, has way better hardware and has support for GrapheneOS.

I have "the choice". It is one cute choice.
