To me , firefox and its android forks have nothing to offer other than ublock and extensions support in general, but only a few of these extensions are reviewed by Mozilla so if I needed another extension that is essential to my browsing but it’s not reviewed… I’ll have to ignore the voice in my mind that asks me " Are you sure the extension you installed can’t see your password while you’re typing it ? " … But I’ll give it another opportunity and try waterfox again
I really don’t know why big companies like Google are terrified to make options.
You made the quick settings show only 4 options immediately. Your research might show that 70% of people prefer it that why. Instead of leaving the 30% in the dust, why not just make it an option in settings? Or even have custom layouts?
Why not add more lock screen options? Why not add options for the navigation pill? Why not make “at a glance” an option?
Even iOS is catching up in terms of customization and at this point I’d say it’s surpassed Android. I still prefer Android for many other reasons, but it has lost one of its main qualities.
Why none of chat apps have 1080p video call? Is it a Android issue to implement or battery concern?
Why don’t 3rd launchers not support native gestures yet? Why does Google refuse to fix that?
I have a similar question, how is that 3rd party launchers users do not know or not care about this?
I genuinely envy them lol.
So far the only way that this has been fixed is with a custom ROM (using their own custom launcher which is average at best) or using Lawnchair with QuickSwitch (requires root, and it is like the best shot you have to have smooth animations with a more customized launcher).
I’m one such user. I notice the less smooth animations and the lack of App opening animations with them daily.
The reason I still use Smart Launcher is because of its amazing auto app categories, and smart search which is unrivaled by the system launcher.
Not to mention the aesthetics and blurred widgets.
I have been using 3rd party launchers for 5 years now. I can’t stand the jerky animations. I always go back to using navigation buttons.
Because google like all things google does not bother. I mean why would they if things are going just as well. Not like you and I are going to switch to a rival OS without google services.
Is it me or is the Pixel 9 hype very low? I feel like nobody is expecting much from it
