7a here. Works like a charm and I was baffled by how easy it was to install.
The reason for using Pixel phones is afaik that Google is one of or the last vendors who allow a complete unlock/relock of the bootloader alongside having a workable security chip with.which most security features are implemented.
Google is one of the few vendors (is it the only one left?) that still sell bootloader unlockable phones period. I don't care about being able to use Google pay or anything. I just want to make my information more difficult and expensive to harvest by being able to use privacy apps to spoof app permissions. That and blocking ads. I would at the very least seriously experiment with no longer having a smartphone if they got rid of all the unlockable bootloaders once and for all and banned or made them incompatible with all the networks.
