So has the app been put back since the issue was fixed?

So you can have a portable device with a larger screen than your phone? For general media consumption?

Using them? I can understand not getting cracked screens but I think avoiding scratches entirely especially across multiple phones would be a significant feat unless you just really baby your phones.

Replace it when your daily battery life starts becoming unacceptable or if the battery itself starts swelling.

What DE/WM are you using right now?

From what I understand, Google One had its own persistent notification (left side) when using the VPN as well as the normal key icon (right side). So now it just has the latter.

It disappeared for me too a while back.

For Android, having apps ask for permission for notifications is a very new feature (debut in Android 13 I think) so by default apps notifications were collectively permitted. It would be up to the user to explicitly go in and disable notifications after the fact. I think many people either didn't know how to access the notification settings or just didn't care enough to disable them.

It's not as powerful as root but it does give you more capabilities. You would need to check the individual app for what functionality and limitations it has with Shizuku.

I agree with you but it's not that uncommon for apps to lack a built-in backup method. I tend to root my phones precisely so I can backup their data.

Compete in what sense? I feel like the weakness of Android tablets is more on the software and app side.

What would you even want on the Arch homepage? The closest to a "default" Arch install would just land you at the TTY login/prompt. It doesn't have the same out-of-the-box experience as other distros like Linux Mint or Fedora or even Debian.
