        Yes, and there are probably other FOSS applications for that as well.
        But it is a bit sad to see that Google considers the “phone” part of the “smartphone” be so obscure functionality that they left it’s development to community.
        Maybe I should stop living in the past and just accept that the glowing rectangle that we carry around is actually a tiktok machine that can occasionally do some other stuff as well.

    How about they focus on making sure pixels can receive calls without needing to be rebooted every fucking day.

      Google has abandoned the pixel as a phone, just like all their other projects. It’s a device for collecting data

    My Pixel can’t even merge calls or tell me that the person I’m ringing is on the phone, but they wanna add this shit?
