Dear PixelExperience Users, It is with a feeling of gratitude that I share important information with you today. After much reflection, I made the decision to complete the development of PixelExperience. The project was created by me in 2017, in a completely different scenario from what we live in today.

Me either. But then again, I've just been using Pixels for the last 5 years or so, so it's not like I've been seeking a "Pixel-like" ROM...
Apart from replicating the pixel experience on devices not sold by Google, it was a ROM that enabled people to upload unlimited images/video in any resolution to google photos cloud storage (as it could disguise itself as OG Google Pixel).
I don't know if it worked well and how google didn't stop it, but it was one of the highlight of this project.
Thankfully, other ROMs with such features already exist. Some are even based on Pixel Experience.
