For the past 10 years (or so), reddit and lemmy users have been complaining about the updates on their Google or Samsung phones, which confirms that they use the pre-installed OS and don’t even think about switching to another OS.
True I’m pretty bummed. Looks like graphene can keep building from aosp for the time being though. Hopefully then can find a better long-term solution.

Lemmy Android users in shambles.
You’re getting downvotes, but I get the vibe that most of the c/android users either use Graphene or aspire to. So you’re not wrong.
(I’m in the aspire camp)
I have no data to back this up but I think most Lemmy Android users don’t use custom ROMs or root their phones.
Ive had too many fights in this community with people who dont use custom ROMs and dont care about privacy to agree with you.

Well, Samsung blocked the bootloader so you can’t even if you wanted
I’m writing this on GrapheneOS right now
I do. I’ve rooted every phone I owned on day 0.

Almost as if Google disapproves of custom ROMs.
Right after my bf just got a Pixel 8 too. 😐 Fucking foul, I will be importing a fairphone when my 6a dies.
Apparently their software support is quite shit according to graphene devs
I’d have to ask the Calyx devs abt it, I use Calyx.
Google can take GraphineOS from my cold dead hands
