As a former Android user and Apple user for the last few years, I kind of wound up here on a whim. The last time when using android it was a slow, budget POS Samsung and I did try FOSS apps through Fdroid but was too afraid to root at the time.
It's been about 6 years since I've used android and needed a new phone so decided on a Pixel. After a week of usage on stock, I reset with the graphene setup and it was painless.
After installing Graphene immediately noticed the debloat. Reinstalled the same apps after the Graphene reset & it saved me 10 gb. Anyways it's been good to me so far, still have to migrate a bunch of stuff from my old phone but just a wanted to thank the GOS team for their amazing work.
Not big on social media or anything so the forum environment is more at home for me to post this. Cheers.
