      AdAway says it’s blocked 200K advertisers since I got my new phone less than a month ago.

      I don’t love the Pixel 7a’s size or battery life, but I can’t go to a phone I can’t root. Call recording and AdAway are non-negotiable.

      I also needed root to get LineageOS-style “hold hardware button to activate flashlight” to work. I could live without that, but it would be very annoying not to have a flashlight instantly when I need it. I activate that all the time.
