MODERATORS
I've been running various unofficial versions of LineageOS on a Pixel C for years because the screen is beautiful and the battery remained good until this year.
Official Google support ended with 8.1 Oreo in 2017, but it is currently running 13. I don't think that it'll get any more updates, but I squeezed an extra 7 or 8 years out of it. Plus, I can probably keep using it as a stationary screen on my treadmill for a few more years. Potentially, It'll be useful for a full decade past that final release date.
That's why I use custom roms.
