A little rant about the Android operating system
@android
Everyone felt weird when I said I was using custom ROMs. Most of them haven’t heard about anything beyond stock android. I wrote a blog trying to normalise it.

I’m not talking about ROMs I’m talking about google.
why post it on an android post then? go to degoogled or something.
because Android is google? it’s supposed to be this Grand unified ecosystem, Google apps on a Google operating system on a Google phone, but anytime you have an issue with one of them, they all blame every other department so nobody helps you. Google has been hiding accessibility features behind paywalls since Android 11 as well.
can you give a few examples of the a11y issues that don’t have at least somewhat well known alternatives that work more or less the same way?
Personally I run android completely without gapps or even aurora store, the only proprietary apps I do actually use is discord my retarded router’s only method of accsessing the settings, eero app
I’m afraid I don’t understand the question. are you asking if you can work around the broken multitasking feature? the only way you can do that is by cracking apps so that they’ll play in the background
what’s broken about multitasking? It’s working fine for me on Android 14. I use split view and desktop mode fairly often without issues, any specific applications that are broken?
