    Haha I know, it's anathema to admit that there is any benefit to existing inside the walled gardens, but acknowledging shortcomings is the first step towards improvement.

    These are also edge cases to me, and overall I'm super pleased with Graphene OS. I don't own a car so Android auto is only missed when renting a car on vacation, and I can bring an old backup phone for that, and I just remember to bring my wallet and credit cards with me now that I can't tap to pay.

    But I know there are people these would be a deal breaker for, so wanted to call them out. It is remarkable how well it all works though!

    I've been using it for a few months now and it's been super easy. The only things I miss are mobile pay and Android auto

    They should be hiring IRS agents until $1 spent only brings in around $1, catch the cheating bastards.

    I think it is more than that, the shower is a proper refuge where external stimuli is severely limited. Sounds are limited by the running water, temperature is controlled by the water, visuals are limited, and no one is generally barging in.

    When I was studying math at University I had a remarkable number of eureka moments in the shower where suddenly infinity made sense. Smart phones didn't really exist then but showers still held power as a great place to think

    Louis Rossman: Android's slow creep towards being closed source continues on - open source elements deprecated youtube.com

    I've been using Graphene OS for a while now and it feels like a miracle to have access to the play store yet not be so locked in with Google. Changes like the ones in the video make me worry that this is a flash in the pan and that Google will lock the play store into their Android for that sweet tracking data
