Do we know why?

Not complaining, just from genuine curiosity.

I didn't know it existed. Well...

[–] DontTreadOnBigfoot@lemmy.world 4 points 7 months ago

Me either. But then again, I've just been using Pixels for the last 5 years or so, so it's not like I've been seeking a "Pixel-like" ROM...

Apart from replicating the pixel experience on devices not sold by Google, it was a ROM that enabled people to upload unlimited images/video in any resolution to google photos cloud storage (as it could disguise itself as OG Google Pixel).

I don't know if it worked well and how google didn't stop it, but it was one of the highlight of this project.

Thankfully, other ROMs with such features already exist. Some are even based on Pixel Experience.
