I upgraded my pixel 6 to a 9 and this phone is much worse in most ways. I fail to understand how one of the richest companies in the world puts out worse products over time and thinks it’s alright

The general dosimeters available at Chernobyl could only read up to 3.6 Roentgen, so they took that value and said “hey, that’s not a too bad a level of radiation” without realizing (or putting in their due diligence) that the true reading was over 15,000. And the head operator and architect of the disaster (dyatlov) kept using 3.6 as the proof that everything is alright and just a minor setback even though the only higher range dosimeter that was available immediately fried itself

I wish the hate was more widespread, I also work in the tech industry and there are plenty of people who i have to work with who have given themselves up completely to having Claude do everything for them. I have never been so frustrated not only trying to keep up but also fixing problems overlooked by LLMs and then absorbing LLM generated responses to pr reviews or to why something broke in production

yes, they only support devices still supported by Google updates. When a pixel is eol’d, graphene stops supporting the device
