    My Google Pixel 8a Android phone is going to be swapped out with a Franco-Dutch Murena Fairphone 5 running the “deGoogled” /e/OS

    CalyxOS is great on pixel devices, what waste of hardware.

      I can’t afford a new Fairphone and my current Samsung is starting to get to the end of its lifecycle, would you recommend me getting a secondhand pixel to have better acces to alternative android os when this phone dies?

        I’d look into graphene or calyx, they’re privacy oriented android roms. the websites have lists of supported devices. I usually get a refurbished pixel a few generations old and use it until it literally falls apart
