    I believe the later Pixel models have longer support periods. But I’m in a similar boat with my old Pixels; my P1 still works just fine, and I’d love to use it as a makeshift security cam, but it’s so far out of date that it’s probably not wise to have it on the network at all.

      Yeah, at least the last couple have longer support periods now, but at the time my Pixel 2 stopped getting support it looks like the Pixel 5 (then the newest model) was only expecting 3 years. It might entice me to switch back at some point.
