Hopefully someone will correct me if I’m wrong, but if I understand correctly, any Pixel that is carrier unlocked can have its bootloader unlocked via the “developer options” menu. I’ve bought two used “unlocked” Pixels on Swappa and had no trouble unlocking the bootloader on either.
I’ve been hosting Emby forever (and the requisite software to acquire content 😉).
Recently I added Nextcloud to facilitate cutting several Google products out of my life. Combined with a few FOSS apps, it’s currently doing the job of Drive (storage) and Keep (notes), and I’m planning to move my contacts and calendar this week.
