I bought my Pixel 8a like a month ago for 380 euros and the first thing I did was install GrapheneOS
I only stayed on the stock system long enough to pull all the updates and make sure all the hardware worked just fine so I don't know what I'm missing out versus stock ROM but so far it works absolutely perfect.
I compiled the system and kernel myself since it makes sense when you are installing a security/privacy centered OS and it instructions worked without a hiccup.
I have three users for compartimentation in my setup.
Owner user only has source available apps compiled by myself barring Firefox because its a pain. I run Shelter to create a work profile where I have the sandboxed Play Services for some critical proprietary apps that I need notifications from.
Games user is self explanatory. It's not allowed to run any applications in the background and I am just there logged on my google account so I can get some of the subscriptions I pay.
"Swamp" user. It's not allowed to run any applications in the backgrouns either and I just use it for bottom of the barrel apps like Discord, Instagram... to stay in touch with some irl friends.
I dont think there's anything that seamless integrate on keyboards or social/chat apps but you could try to selfhost a booru app and then share the hotlinks to those gifs.
They are mostly known for anime and weeb stuff but for memes and gifs I think the tagging system would work the best so you can quickly search what you want.
Pixel 8A surprinsingly the 4k60fps video worked. No zoom, it just hangs preview. Night mode does nothing. Has way more controls which is nice but I'm not a super hardcore photographer so welp.
Having a Google Pixel is hard to imagine a camera that works better than a Pixel camera with internet permissions disabled. But I will try later to compile from source and check how it works.
4-2-1-1 for me I guess đ«Ł or 4-2-2?
Two copies at home, synced daily, one of them in an external drive that I like to refer as the emergency grab and run copy lol
One at a family member synced weekly and manually every time I visit.
All of those three copies are always within a 10 kilometer radius in a valley overseen by a volcano so..
One partial copy of the so-critical-would-cry-if-Iost data is synced every few days to a backblaze bucket.
