Is google pixel so bad? I thought those are solid phones...

No, it's just that on Lemmy anything that isn't open source or self hosted is basically the devil.

Google Pixels are great phones, but they come loaded with Google Services and this is what this commenter complains about.

No it's a very good phone, but I prefer to leave assistant off, and damned if it doesn't pop up about once a day to ask if I'm it really really sure I don't want to turn it on. Gets annoying
