Not moving to, but adding them as I understand it.

Pixel 11 downgraded something such that GrapheneOS will not be ported to it; it remains to be seen if any future Pixels will meet Graphene's standards.

Edit: Memory tagging extensions introduced with Pixel 8 series are missing from Pixel 11.

Pixel 11 will likely be improved to meet our requirements. Android 17 QPR2 Beta 4 added back MTE support after our initial thread about this. It turns out hardware support does exist. It's not clear why it was entirely unavailable and disabled in firmware at launch. There may be something wrong with it which has to be worked around in firmware. It may have simply not been implemented yet. We're now optimistic that we'll be able to support those alongside the Motorola devices.<

Every time I hear about a pixel release it's something being downgraded from the previous versions lol
