My wife’s pixel 3a became so slow to the point of being useless. I tried to restore it but it was still very slow. It started happening after a software update after the pixel 5 came out 🤷
I, and a friend of mine also experienced this. I believe it started after the “final” update, but there’s no way to know. Needless to say i won’t ever buy, or recommend, a google device ever again.
Custom ROMs on the 3a still perform quite well. There is also a WIP mainline Linux port for the 3a that will hopefully extend the life of it for many more years to come.

I’ve got an old Thinkpad that works great. I’m guessing if I ever connect it to the Internet again it’ll mysteriously brick

I wish I thought of this before getting rid of the phone…
