I would prefer that Alphabet keep Android open, but honestly, how can anybody be surprised? Eventually Google is going to tighten the screws on Android. I haven't looked into it, but hopefully there are some truly free options out there. Graphene?

Graphene is Android based. Not sure what it'd mean for them in case Android fully locks down.

Google already squeezing grafene. Grafene can no longer use pixel deves, Google won't open new pixels.

Only new device they gonna get is some Motorola device not yet relesed

Source for new Pixels not being supported please?

[–] illi@piefed.social -2 points 17 hours ago

Not sure if there is a definite confirmation on this, but I do remember there were hints that at some point they might not support new Pixels. No source on hand though, I only have vague recollection on this
