Success! I've installed a new battery in my #OnePlus 6 running #postmarketOS. Old battery capacity reported around 0.5Ah, new battery out of the box reports 2.96Ah and was around 50% charged, so letting it charge up now. Used a hair dryer to weaken the adhesive and @iFixit suction cup and picks to get the back off. After removing the back, swapping the battery is quite simple.

@CalcProgrammer1 @iFixit I'm in the same market. Where did you get the battery?

@CalcProgrammer1 Oooh, I should eventually do the battery swap myself. While it's still working well, it's not as good as it used to be.. and it is a fine phone, so.. x3

@CalcProgrammer1 Great, did you take a new adhesive with your new battery or was the old one still good enough? @iFixit
