Considering the precedent and the new battery ageing limit features in pixel 9a its unlikely. Going forward you will not just lose capacity but also lose charging speed. Atleasf in newer pixel phones.

Feel free to share. Would love to check your music.

For you, there is Sony.

I have a curved smartphone with thin bezels. Unless, you use the phone without any case. Its fine. The touch rejection on my current phone is good so accidental touch has never been a issue. On the other hand the immersive views make the experience good.

The difference would probably be €50 more for higher storage if not higher. Still, I can't see this being a deter for many people.

You can install LineageOS, \E\OS.

Works fine on my android 15 device. Just need to provide the all files permission at the prompt.

I know.

I use one because it had one in the box. Otherwise, I would've purchased one since the back is prone to scratches and degradation. It also adds a level of protection to the phone.

Beta does and unlike nightly doesn't update every night.

There's also Fennec on fdroid if you need something stable with about:config support.

For those use Universal Android Debloater Or Canta with shizuku from android to install for the current user.

You were shadowbanned for watching youtube in a web browser with adblock? Sounds excessive.

Well, I do need to exist a certain degree in this world/society by giving away from some data. I'm already an outcast in a way that I do not use popular social media apps/websites most people use.

I can stop more data collection by installing Linux, AOSP, GrapheneOS with bare minimum apps from fdroid.

I could've done that but would be making my life more difficult for little gain.

I'm not using any Meta or standard service to justify funneling any data from my side to them.

My setup blocks most trackers and ads than the average person. I do not even see ads on my phone be it a website or a native app. I reduce my reliance on google only to what's needed. Others do not get it unless needed. This reduces data collection to a high degree.

This loophole for example did not touch my phone since ads and trackers are already blocked to a high degree.

You are willingly giving away your data if you are not blocking trackers in your web browser and android apps.

I recommend Firefox +Ublock-origin for web browser and apps liker PersonalDNSFilter or Adguard android app if you can get a license for HTTPS filtering.

I use FairEmail. I have most of emails downloaded on device and those which aren't can be searched from the server.

You can contact the dev by filling an online request form. Maybe, he can help with your search issue.

Continue with your Nokia 3310, I guess?

They call it midrange. But, snapdragon 7+gen 3, 240hz 1500nits HBM IGZO OLED display, 256/512GB of UFS 4.1 with microsdcard support.

I would've bought this phone if it was made available outside of Japan.

Clicking that link results in unknown link error for some reason.

If you care about these things best would be to use a chat application like Jami which won't end up like WhatsApp.
