I run CalyxOS on a refurbished Pixel device. Works great, very privacy-respecting out of the box. Good at being a device that you actually own.

Thanks, I was looking at CalyxOS, and plan to try that "next weekend".

In case anyone reads this thread later.. So far, CalyxOS is working out well. The hardest parts were buying a used device for it (uncertainty of getting a version with an unlockable bootloader, and having to avoid all the OLED display problems).

Chiming in with my own experience, as well. The two wrinkles I've encountered:

* SafetyNet doesn't work, as expected, which means no Google Pay. Nothing else I use has been impeded, though. * Chromecasting doesn't seem to be implemented in MicroG, so no casting content

Other than that, it's been solid.
