Agree - I jumped from a OnePlus 5T to a Pixel 5a 2 years ago and have no regrets. It really depends on what you're modding for, but I found that on Pixel not having (as much) bloatware, getting the latest Android updates, having real Google Camera support instead of chasing the best mod, and using Wavelet instead of Viper4Android took care of most of my rooting needs. Instead, with the unlockable bootloader I've been able to explore custom OSes like GrapheneOS which has been really great!
I believe it's this issue for 0.0.36, where it will always use your account's preferences: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/887
It looks like a temporary fix is already done, so it should be fixed when they make a new release (0.0.37). As a quick fix for 0.0.36, it looks like if you change your account's preferences, quit the app and reopen, it'll use those new settings (but that's definitely a pain), you could also use the web version.
Defunctland's Disney's Fastpass: A Complicated History is a fantastic dive into the logistics of managing a giant crowd over several years, from approaching it as an engineering problem all the way to exploiting the system for profit. It's such a fascinating problem to me, and it's presented in an engaging and fun way. The rest of the channel is fantastic too!
I'll also recommend Fascinating Horror - these aren't fictional horror stories, these are real disasters told in an incredibly detailed but highly respectful way. They don't just explain the disaster and why/how it happened, but also the regulations that came afterwards to make sure these would never happen again. They're all high quality, but if you want a starting point the Nutty Butty Caves will give you a good idea what the channel is about.
Manifest V3 will not prevent Brave from blocking ads. We built ad blocking into the browser itself so it will not be affected by Google changing its rules for extensions.

I got a Supernote A5X to read papers - I'm very happy with it and wouldn't want a tablet. I specifically wanted a dumb device dedicated to notes/reading that I wouldn't connect to the internet, which really helps me focus. The eink display is easy to read and is a great break from screens, it feels natural to write on.
However it's not perfect - eink has a small lag in turning pages, so if you intend on flipping through a ton of pages while coding that may be a pain. The searching experience also isn't great, typing takes longer because of the lag. I use it as an advanced notebook rather than a smart device, and I love it from that lens.
