uBOL is entirely declarative, meaning there is no need for a permanent uBOL process for the filtering to occur, and CSS/JS injection-based content filtering is performed reliably by the browser itself rather than by the extension. This means that uBOL itself does not consume CPU/memory resources while content blocking is ongoing -- uBOL's service worker process is required only when you interact with the popup panel or the option pages.

uBOL does not require broad "read/modify data" permission at install time, hence its limited capabilities out of the box compared to uBlock Origin or other content blockers requiring broad "read/modify data" permissions at install time.

Emphasis mine. No background processes, including a website-reading permission does indeed sound more optimized for mobile, where people may have limited resources.

I'd be super down for one that folds flat, and does away with the huge camera bump. Get me a nice stylus, a foldable keyboard and a simple folding support to hold the phone at an angle, and that's essentially a desktop that can fit into your pockets.

So essentially your concerns are the camera bump and stylus? As the other features you mentioned are already there.

Serious question though, has any other company matched their 4o model yet? Maybe Claude?

Because it keeps getting updates?

My question was why do you think degoogling will help you with notification sync.

Why do you think degoogling will help with that?

they also give a keyboard for that extra screen size

Well, there is a separate system for pirating prevention, the Google Play license check. That has existed for years.

According to the article, that's due to more features and more updates.

I think the only thing that should be right is the price.

Everything else - form factor, thickness, aspect ratio, whatever - can and should be experimented with, and nothing will break because the apps adapt anyway.

Well, unless they are unoptimized for tablets in general, which most are...

Honestly, I'm shocked there aren't way more. We have the Google Store, Samsung Store, Amazon store and...that's it?

There are plenty of repositories for F-Droid, and from what I've heard, also for Aptoide.

That said, it is not really beneficial for most companies to compete with Google Play since they know the user base will be smaller, user experience will be worse (install warnings, no auto-update), and people may get affected by malware if they don't pay attention to where they are downloading things from (may download a scam app directly instead of the legit app store).

That's why it took years to even build a first generation product.
