I don’t know what everybody sees in circle to search. Isn’t it just Google Lens which you can get on any other phone? I can make a screenshot and share ot with Google Lens to get the same result right?

I actually found Cinnamon to be more resource intensive than Gnome on most computers.

When excalidraw was mentioned in another comment I think it would also be worth to mention tldraw even though I don’t kniw whether it can be counted as an replacement since I never used draw.io.

The Xiaomi Android One line-up was unlockable without any hassle, but is long time discontinued. I used to use the Mi A2 lite as my main phone and you could just unlock it yourself offline. Only thing blocking you from doing it was the OEM unlocking toggle in developer settings. I still have the phone and it is running Android 14 like a charm.

RCS is an open standard, but Google’s implementation of it isn’t AFAIK. That’s why there exist no 3rd party RCS client outside of those praised by Google.

Change for the sake of change. At least it seems to be in a good direction.

I don’t understand why the control panel UI wasn’t modernized instead? Would that really be unfeasible? I think it still might have been less work than to maintain 2 coexistent “settings/control panel” apps and migrate from one to another. Sometimes you have to throw out the old code base and start from scratch. But if you do so shouldn’t you rather distrubute the result when your finished and not in a half-baked compromise-like state?

they never worked very reliably in my experience.

It works perfectly on my phone (Poco X3 NFC). It is probably different from phone to phone.
