Or any other rom, really. Stock, which is the Google version of Android, but the pixel line is well supported by lineage and other variants.

The summary kind of makes it sound like there’s a switch in settings and poof! you’re back at stock android. But I imagine you need to flash the new ROM and start from scratch.

Right. It’s different in that it lacks Google Framework Service, and adds a bunch of privacy controls, like additional quick toggles to control the cameras, and microphone, the way other Android can quick toggle the flashlight and location servcies and bluetooth.

The biggest thing is substantially more granular per app permissions, controlled from a calentral interface in settings.

My point is that “stock” is not a “standard”. If anything GrapheneOS is more standard.

True. It’s close to AOSP. Don’t understand the downvotes.
