Android is still great. The Pixel phone is the best Android phone by several metrics. Usability and Camera come to mind. Android TV is by far the best TV interface. Just because it's sideloadable and decently usable. Low bar, but here we are.

Gboard is good. The pixel launcher is good enough to not bother switching off. The Google Home certainly turns my lights on and off. And as soon as Google opens RCS, I'm leaving Google Messages.

But that's the only Google stuff I use. And I'm thinking of switching to Graphene OS.

I like my Pixel phones, so I dunno what about it is supposed to be a joke?

My 3a still works. Wish they wouldn't have removed the headphone jack from later models but the 7a has been fine.

Yeah the pixel hardware is the only thing they make that I think is any good and I run graphene on mine
