This is all fine for some, but i am happy with most personalization options provided by windows 10. The only thing missing is the ability to close window by middle clicking on its taskbar item (common, we can already close browser tabs this way, it’s common sense). In window i use a taskbar tweaker app and i wasn’t able to find a similar setting for Linux.

Probably even more annoying is how linux desktop hijacks most hot keys. I use Pycharm and couldn’t use any key combinations that involve ALT key because somehow Ubuntu thought that key should be dedicated to moving the window. I eas not able to find a place to disable it. This was back in (or before) 2018. I haven’t really tried linux as a daily driver since then.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?

Did you get a “subsidized” phone?

It’s better than ipad anyway. You just stick it in to load music onto it, you don’t need iTunes or a cable, and it’s nore compact too. I miss those simple devices.

Initially i bought nexus/pixel phones for clean android experience and no bloat.

Staying with pixel mainly for camera quality and free storage on Google Photos.

Its not ideal, but I’m used to it. They never try to do something too gimmicky and it feels like phone made by Google will work best with the os made by google so my experience will be most consistent, but i haven’t tried other phones in a while.
