      Yeah kinda! My pixel is still going strong, but I kind of feel forced to get rid of it now. I would much prefer to just flash a new ROM and get a few more years out of it. The hardware is (still) really good for the performance I expect out of my phone.

      Eh. Maybe I’ll get a new phone, wipe this one and use it for traveling.

      You expect them to backport security updates to pixel 3 or whatever for free when even the manufacturer doesn’t?

          They only backport (some) OS patches, the firmware doesn’t get updated after the vendor classifies a device as EOL.
