   People with Google pixel phones are very vocal about it. I like that even if I would never buy another one.

   It’s nice to see people excited by technology that works for them.

     @n8fr8 is it hard to get a stock operating system?

     @mattl I just picked up a Samsung A12 for $150 and it destroys my Pixel 4a on battery life, screen, and actual camera hardware. I feel like I'm finally breaking out of my Pixelcentric ways...

     @n8fr8 oh that’s good. People used to ask me to help fix their new phones to remove all that stuff.

     @mattl I think it is likely harder than it should be, but I can say the Samsung flavor isn't as annoying as it used to be

     Apparently you can’t dial 911 on Pixel 6? How does that happen?

     @mattl There was a bug in android where apps can add themselves to a list of call-capable app multiple times, and Microsoft Teams was poorly coded so it would apparently add itself to that list multiple times a day

     When calling 911, that list got parsed for some reason, and the parser would crash and therefore the 911 call would fail if there were thousands of entries of Teams on the list ?♀️

     @genevieve just another reason to hate Teams.
