You couldn't pay me to go back to using anything made by Apple or Google. I use a GrapheneOS Pixel and my self-hosted "cloud" with Nextcloud, HomeAssitant, and my own email server and the control and performance are unrivaled by any of the Big Tech crapware. I could start self-hosting an AI chatbot I suppose, but these do not seem to have reached the point of enshiffication yet as relatively new services.

I may be out of the loop, but can't google just kill GrapheneOS anytime it wants? I never tried it out because I assumed that in the near future it won't be compatible with banking and messaging apps. Do they have a long term plan to exist in 5-10 years?

Google could conceivably stop contributing to the AOSP and make future changes private, but the FOSS licence won't prevent others like Graphene and Chinese OEMs from continuing development on their own. I believe Graphene made the deliberate decision to only support Pixel devices because these used to be "reference devices" and have unlocked bootloaders, but I saw somewhere that they are in talks with an OEM to make their own devices.
