GOS is great. Funny, I used to rom hop and distro hop a lot; but on GOS, I installed it once and so far so good (5+ months in).

Just some tips for new users: Just install it and dont be afraid to try things out (Google Store, profiles, Aurora...etc). Oh and dont make it tooooo complicate with many profiles and private space. You can test first but dont over do it if you're not experienced.

And no, I am not a dev from GOS lol. I'm an ordinary user who wants to take control of my phone.
