Do you lose pixel specific features?
As long as it's based on software rather than hardware I think it's safe to assume it will be lost.
You can reinstall some things (such as the default camera app) from apks you find online, and apps such as Google Maps can be downloaded from the app store (which contains all apps from the play store). But by default it strips away everything that is installed on the phone by default and replaces it with a degoogled ecosystem, and I don't think it differentiates between different devices.

Gemini never gets installed automatically on GrapheneOS. Yet another reason to switch if you can

Any Google app that would have Gemini baked in has long since been disabled on my phone. I'm presuming it's bullshit isn't going to be able to access my Fossify Messages or Dialer or Gallery or every other app I've replaced and disabled, especially since I've also disabled the Assistant and Google Apps.
(If I'm wrong please correct me.)

If you own a Fairphone (3-5), Pixel (4, 5, 7 or
Nothing phone (1) or OnePlus (7 or 8), it's super easy to install /e/OS using this online installer. Most android apps work well out of the box, but all Google stuff has been stripped away and replaced with MicroG where necessary.I'm never returning to Google anything.
My previous Motorola also has an e/OS/ spin. But sadly my current one does not.

Did you download this, or was it an automatic update?
Some people have said it was an automatic update, and it then changed their settings
Im not sure when the update came out but I've had two forced updates in the past 3-4 months for my Pixel 6. Im assuming thats when it changed. I am very meticulous about checking settings after updates but It looks like this was only online settings for your google account, not local to the phone, which is probably how I missed it.

It's a system app? I was able to uninstall it directly on my Pixel 8. Unless it's only a system app above that.

I'm okay if it has access to everything, makes it easier to find the porn I was looking for.

Do you lose pixel specific features?
the launcher might become a very similar but stripped down version.
if you liked to have more features, try the lawnchair launcher from f-droid. its a fork with readded features. you need to have the izzydroid repo activated to find it
„Lawnchair“ – IzzyOnDroid F-Droid Repository
Homescreen based on on Launcher3 from AOSP
IzzyOnDroid Repo Browser (apt.izzysoft.de)
