      How much of a risk is GraphenOS to install? I really don’t wanna brick my phone.

        I had the same concern so I actually just bought a used newer pixel and started a fresh install of Graphene. It took me several weeks to learn how it works and migrate my accounts and switch to FOSS apps wherever I could.
