Front brake squeak

Front brake squeak
I bought my 2021 Silverado 1500 in December of 2020. I've put on about 19,000 miles and had a 6 inch lift installed with 35" tires. Recently, I've had a slight squeaking noise coming from the front brakes that has continued to worsen. When it first occurred, I took it to the dealership and they said nothing was wrong, and brakes seemed fine. The noise continued on for a week after that, continuing to get louder.
It usually is very intermittent, stopping after the truck has been sitting and then coming back after a bit of driving. I took it to a local shop around here that would give me a little more detail of what's going on and they told me that the front brakes, because chevy has decided to put larger, 4 piston calipers on the front, that they are making the noise because of the extra weight added with the lift and tires.
In the end, he basically told me there's ultimately no alternative to getting rid of the noise, and honestly, it's quite frustrating because it gets seriously loud and embarrassing almost.
i was curious if anyone had the same issue? Found any sort of fix for it?
