    It goes to my pile of reasons for not using it, currently, I have:

    • Blocks VPNs
    • Popup ad at startup
    • There’s nothing interesting on it
    • Now it requires an account

        Yeah everytime I open it for updates it shows me a popup ad. For the VPN my only reference point is Proton VPN premium servers, when using it the downloads don’t move, disable it, and it starts going instantly

          OK i have a stock tab s6 and it doesn’t do either of those thankfully. It sucks in other ways. Have to keep this one stock but with lineage it is so much better
