I have a pixel 4a (yes, ik its eol, i use it more as a backup) that used to be rooted, until i got that shitty battery update, immediately switched to graphene.
So yes you do still get updates on rooted
Weird. Also a Pixel4a user (condolences to both of us), but I had LineageOS on mine and was rooted, but I’ve had no software updates. I get reminders from LineageOS that a new build is available, but I just swipe right because if it ain’t broke don’t fix
I think it depends on the device. I remember rooting my s7, or maybe it was the grand prime? I cant remember the exact model, but it was samsung and around that time period for those two models, and any software update i wanted to apply, including security updates, had to be manually installed/side loaded.

Lineage and graphene don’t force updates. They could but that’s not their mo. If they did they would presumably lose 90% of their users.
Stock android even if rooted easily can and does force updates.
oh right true, that’s the issue – stock android
