Then get a fairphone and load /e/OS or something else like that? GrapheneOS on Pixels aren’t the only degoogled option. GrapheneOS makes it clear that their priority is security, so if you’re willing to compromise on that then GOS likely isn’t for you.
The hardware is hardware, my guy. Most people running desktop linux are using hardware mainly comprised from the work of companies with shitty reputations.
GOS has a set of required specs to ensure the security it’s famous for, and the pixel happened to meet them due to their developer-focused design implementations. Luckily, Motorola can now see the economic opportunity of leaning into that as well.

That is exactly what I have. I am not willing to compromise my ethical values and to give money to a truly evil company.
I just find it hypocritical that GOS requires Google made phones and at the same time says its a bad company.

It’s a hardware issue. No other phones had the security features required. This is why they partnered with Motorola, to get away from Google hardware…
