Contrary to many android wearables, the most recent google pixel watch 2 is reasonably good at sleep tracking according to the quantified scientist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ef1by8kJfk4&t=1109s

Google partnered with fitbit last year and now sleep data and other biometrics are shared with the fitbit app. The good thing about this is that you can access your data via fitbit's API, there is a python package for this process: https://github.com/orcasgit/python-fitbit. You can read this article if you want more details on how to configure oauth to make this work: https://towardsdatascience.com/using-the-fitbit-web-api-with...

The cons of this setup is that you still need an android phone synched with your watch and is not too privacy friendly, but sure, you could run the code on your linux machine

Google owns Fitbit, and it’s not clear what the future of Fitbit is as a standalone brand or product line

For me, the Google Pixel 2 is just not a good device. I recently bought one to replace an Amazfit GTR 4. So many wrong things in the Pixel, I went back to the GTR 4. Doesn't track heart rate or 02 during non-sleep periods, for example, and impossible to see individual readings on the phone. Doesn't show enough text of the alerts. ECG readings are awkward and not automatic (though the GTR 4 does not have them, they are so awkward on the Pixel, they might as well not be there - it insisted I switch the device to the other wrist to get a reading).

Oh, and the GTR 4 battery lasts about 10 days for me. The Pixel never lasted more than two.
