What is everyone's daily driver right now?

I'm currently rocking a pixel 6a but can't shake an itching desire for an s23

Pixel 7.

I know that a few others have had problems with this phone, but it's been fairly solid for me. Camera is great, too.

Now that I've said that, I've probably jinxed it, and will RMA it tomorrow...

Same! This was my first brand new, pre-ordered phone. Got it day one and I love it. I've only had two issues: rarely, the volume buttons stop working only for the volume adjustment; I can still screenshot with them. Second, the haptic feedback for the keyboard will randomly stop working; again, other haptic sources still work. Both just require a quick restart, which I should be doing more often anyway. Besides those tiny and weird bugs, it's been perfect.

That's a weird bug about the volume key. Can't say that I've noticed that. I've heard that the volume button can fall out, but obviously this physical issue isn't the case for you, as you can still use it to screen capture.

When you restart the phone, does the volume button control the volume again?

Yup, a restart fixes both of those bugs. It's very strange, slightly annoying, but ultimately is easy to fix and has only happened three or four times. Same with the key kard haptics, three or four times maybe. Both started somewhat recently, maybe two months ago if I had to guess.
