It's great. I have been running it for more than 3 years as my daily phone.

You can go read on their website what all the benefits are, but for me the main reason was I wanted a secure phone that isn't filled with spy- and bloat ware.

If you rely heavily on things like google Pay, you'll have to take a look at their docs, because some of these proprietary things will not work.
Also, some banking apps apparently don't work.

It's kinda insane that we've built the incentive structures of business in a way that are designed to fuck over the user/consumer.

How nice would it be if you could just trust a company to do the right things, and is not gonna extract and sell every last drop of data from you?

I might even consider running non-opensource software.

But in this precedent, no way.
you have to assume they are trying to fuck you.

A sad symptom of fiat money, or how did we end up here?

If you knew you're facing a corrupt court and they are gonna slam you with 25 years, what would you've done?
