This is why I will only ever buy the OnePlus brand at this point. I used to buy Nexus until they started skyrocketing the price (Ting user here) not to mention my last nexus bricked itself when the battery got low.
With CopperheadOS going non-free, but still open, and Pixel getting an order of magnitude more expensive than Nexus I'm looking for alternatives to run LineageOS.
All those devices will continue to only be supported for <4 years (in the very best case!) and then off to increase the "outdated devices" count or the landfill!
If I had a spare $600 I might be inclined to support the librem-5 efforts of running a mainstream kernel with lifetime updates.
