@hi no, that’s not just you. I have a GrapheneOS thing for work, and… let’s just say it doesn’t diminish the rate at which my hate for everything Android other then its system shell (*g*) grows.
Just booted my SE (2016) again to also update it and charge it up again, and, even the SE (2022) is such a downgrade, but still pleasurable compared to the Pixel 9a, both hardware‑ and software-wise. (With the Pixel, I cannot tell which way is up. At all. All the time.) It helps they’re still on iOS 18.

I just don't want to touch android phone, so bad it looks and feels to me...

@hi @mirabilos this sounds like a mobile phone withdrawal. I envy you. You'll get over it, hopefully, and start to see the world again ;-)
- ui is just not responding
- cut button doesn't work
- rebooted
- now it works... sometimes

@hi not that I don't see the same stuff on the stock Google's Android.
The most useful app on my phone is Termux - a terminal emulator.
I never owned or used an iPhone. I probably should stay away from it, given how addictive these ugly inferior Android phones still are, it'd probably qualify as a hard drug ;-)

@hi having gone back and forth a few times from stock android > iphone > calyxos/lineage > iphone again...
no it's not you, unfortunately. i wish the open source phone was calmer and more pleasant to use but it's just not.
phone bad!
