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
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.
I was planning to move to Lineage, and eventually GrapheneOS (non Pixel at the moment) but revolut has broken compatibility by enforcing the use of the Play Integrity API, revolut is my main bank so I’m kinda blocked, for now… 🤬
I may follow suit down the road, I’m even contemplating having a second cheap phone, with a long battery life, only used for revolut, I don’t think I really have any other apps that I couldn’t survive without.
Anyone using Lineage? How is it?
I’ve got a Pixel 7 and have been wondering

It’s annoying to upgrade between whole number android versions.
I used it extensively ony Samsung Galaxy S4 until Android 9 or 11. Was very good (model jflte(xx))

My last bank did that so I switched banks my new bank app works without any play services installed on GOS.
that’s the spirit

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.
