I have a Pixel 7, stock Android 14. It is my only phone and I love the stock system. But I am trying to gradually ditch Google and its services, for reasons well-known in this community and Lemmy in general. How much would I gain/lose using a custom ROM with/without GApps?

Update: Switched to GrapheneOS, no regrets :)

    Anything and everything powered by the Assistant. Hold for me, spam protection, visual voicemail, call screening, direct my call, wait times, and possibly live translate. If you don’t live in the US a lot of this may not matter. But if you use these features you’ll lose them with a custom rom. If you’re degoogling then disregard (I see what you say in your post, but I figured a heads-up might still be worth it).
