Best thing I can come up with is use a third party camera app, like Simple Camera. Since Google decided to hard-code this into the app, this is your only option aside from using really inconvenient solutions

They shouldn’t rely on ads to make money back on a phone IMHO.

What is that program/script that lets you view a pokémon in your terminal?

There are open source, free YouTube clients such as LibreTube that already had this feature. Still don’t understand why people still buy premium when alternatives exist, that are much better.

I guess you can use AltStore. I heard you have to renew the apps every 7 days, though

Yeah I use Droid-ify too. Reasons why is that it looks much better than the stock F-Droid client and is also much newer. Of course I still have the original client just in case but droidify is just better overall

Thank you everyone for your repsponses - I’ve decided to take the route of uninstalling Google via ADB.

If anyone is wondering, this is the conmand I used to do it:

adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox

I absolutely love Aliucord. I’ve always thought that the UI on mobile looked really bad so using a MD3 theme + compact mode plugin fixed all my issues

I use prognoza - it’s open source and has MD3 widgets

I started using it after the weather apps I use were just so fucking bloated I gave up and looked for another solution
