Currently running OOS 11 Open Beta 5 on 8T. Recently switched from a Pixel XL, I've been using Google devices since Nexus 5.
Personally, I feel Pixel OS has deviated farther from stock android than OOS. This is why I went with the 8T rather than newer Pixel models.
I can't really relate to the author's doomsday sentiments. I didn't notice a significant amount of bloatware. I've noticed in recent betas they introduced a "OnePlus account" in the settings menu, which is somewhat annoying. The most annoying branding decision is the fuchsia-colored 1s on the clock.
I don't think they're copying Samsung's UI - if anything, Samsung has started copying OOS. But I think mobile OS designs have become more homogeneous in recent years, all of them pretty bland.
