    Promoting Google phones is def a major issue I have with it. I just happened to already have one and wanted to continue to use it without all the Google shitware and “services” they force on them. I’m planning on voting with my wallet for my next phone, but I already paid for this hardware and want to use it for as long as I can.

      I think the reason that Graphene OS only uses Google Pixels is because they offer the most hardware security out of any phone. To be honest I don’t think its too much of an issue because obviously installing Graphene OS onto the phone will completely degoogle the device.

        You’re correct. I personally disagree with the idea that buying hardware from Google for this is a good thing though. I’d rather buy slightly less secure hardware that I feel aligns more with my ideals and not need to hack it.
