    They did the same thing to Photos and the Play Store on phones. It’s so stupid. It went from an easy to use search bar to a useless tab

    I really can’t wait until Linux phones are stable. So tired of Google’s bullshit and no matter how hard I try I can’t get used to iPhones.

      As far as I know, the only “stable” linux phones are the Pinephone and Librem 5. The former runs hot and is painfully slow and the librem is very expensive for what you get. Some android phones can be reflashed but there are always core hardware features missing like camera, usb and GPS. I wrote this comment on my Oneplus 6 running postmarketOS, so you can make it work if you accept the shortcomings.

    Cannot recommend Aurora Store enough. Play Store has been unusable for years and is only getting worse.

      Yeah, this is a good recommendation.

      Been using it for years for a phone with no Google account.
