I have only one problem with that: no other browser is capable of Casting (as in Chromecast to an Android TV).
Trust me, I heard and tried ALL the suggestions there is. And no, I don't want to cast the whole phone screen, JUST the browser or the medium playing inside it. You know, science-kind media for my friend.
I think you might not understand what they are joking about.
They say there isn't a second season because they don't consider the one we have to be a "valid" season, because they think it was bad.
Oh, and I just thought they are talking about everyday chores, like doing the laundry, vacuuming, going to the grocery store or pharmacy, cut the grass or the tree, stuff like that. Which don't require any certification.
If I buy a bottle of whiskey and a 2 liter coke beforehand in the duty free and mix them up in the toilet in the airport so it looks like I drink coke, I sure can!
But those fuckers slow down after a couple of drinks, and after another few that arrive very slowly, they straight up stop. But of course don't tell you that, but no matter how many times you wave one of them, they are just "Yeah, my colleague is on that, thanks for the patience" but the drink never arrives.
Next time I'll buy a bottle in the duty free. Fuckers.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”
I don't really hate them. I have a Pixel, I use almost all of their consumer products and mostly I really like them. They are mature products with a lot of features and mostly reliable. Heck I even have Location History always turned on. It's good on Saturday afternoons to see where the hell I was blackout drunk on Friday. Jokes aside I like to see in what countries or cities I was in 15 years ago.
One exception is Chrome, which got way too big and needs some serious competition.
What bothers me is *mostly *on app level, not on corporate Google level.
What I do not like on corporate level though is:
they kill everything I start to like (Inbox, Google Reader)
they cannot create a single unified message service right (see also point 1)
they don't have an ad-free paid tier for Google One. Like one where you don't see any ads in any of their products (not even sponsored links on search, no promotion in gmail, no YT ads, no nothing). I would pay serious money for it.
I found an option in the Developer Options called Webview implementation, but only the Android System Webview can be selected. On Pixel 7.
