Ok yeah im in the exact same boat. Mull was also unusable on stock on android 14 (pre gos release); i kinda expected it to fix it.
It works just fine still on my pixel 4a so its odd…

Not on mobile, no

I personally have used mull exclusively in the past, but use Fennec currently.

Commenting here just to ask others: mull has been terrible since Android 14. Is that just for me? Pages not loading at all until cache is cleared every few minutes, its been completely unusable for me so i switched.
Nothing like that on their github or nothing. Im on a pixel8/grapheneOS

I do this with games. A lot of games dont even really get a demo anymore. So its gambling to buy it…
I pirate the games and if i like it i buy it. Generally ill keep playing the pirated version unless it has a multiplayer i want to play as well.

The “annoyances” filters in ublock stop the cookie popups

I believe so, yes. From my understanding, google blocks custom roms from being able to use the service.

I’ve heard before that with root you can spoof it, but its not easy or convenient.

My experiences come from using Calyx for a couple years in the past and I’ve been using Graphene for a few years as well now.

You lose a couple of things. The main ones have already been mentioned by others (GPay and Android Auto). Theres some other stuff you might miss. Now Playing doesnt work, AI camera features, weather on lock screen, etc.
Most of the stuff you might miss are annoyances, and some can be worked around fully with other apps. Nothing too major. With microG or Sandboxed google play, none of the apps i want/need to use are broken. That wasnt the case even a few years ago on microG, but things have gotten a lot better.

Soulseek to get the music, Musicbrainz Picard to standardize the formatting and fix metadata if it isnt already there

Apparently people dont know that whitepapers were not invented by Satoshi 😂

Im due for an upgrade and was waiting for this since they announced 7 years of security updates (makes it such a better value than a used 7).
Any of you guys have experience with black friday sales on pixels? I researched a little, and it seems i wouldnt be saving much more than by selling the free buds that come with it rn.
Also damn google theyre offering $55CAD for my 4a 5G

I mainly agree with you, i have enough of 128gb. But i know a lot of people that take a ton of pictures and struggle with storage space

Buying stuff from streamers is actually kind of big in China rn. Think of it like the old as seen on tv ads channels on cable, but now its influencers marketing products on tiktok

Florisboard also has gesture typing, however i rarely use it. I find i make a lot more mistakes than i did swipe typing with gboard

Abigail freaking rules

Used to be a bar person, but at some point it broke on the custom ROM im running for a few updates so i switched. Been using gestures ever since. I like them maybe a lil less because phones are too big, but it feels faster

Honestly it doesnt make the experience much worse in my experience
