That's not what makes it ridiculous to me. I think it's ridiculous that Google locking down android now costs me hundreds of dollars to deal with for no real benefit to myself. No shade being thrown towards Pixel or GrapheneOS. The circumstances are the problem. Google is the problem...which does place quite a bit of irony on the solution being a Google Pixel.
Oh yeah, totally agreed on all points. Google is the bad guy here, but at the end of the day that doesn't change the fact that a degoogled google device is actually the best current option. I wish more folks could handle that nuance.
Nothing wrong with not wanting to or not being able to make an expensive new hardware purchase to work around some bullshit like Google is pulling though, of course.
