Android 15 is an exceptionally boring update to my Pixel phone

Listen, I’m having a week. So Android 15 suddenly dropping to my Pixel 6a was absolutely the right type of stimuli I was looking for. Was I hoping that it would hit me on an October night, just before the witching hour? No. But I’ll tell you this much: I was hoping for something more. I can’t be the only one asking myself this question: remember when Android OS updates were exciting? You’d get the notification, initialize the update only to have the phone tell you that it doesn’t have enough battery, so you’d rush to get your charger and watch in anticipation as that download bar filled up. Then the phone restarted and we were there: in the future.
