Is the Gemini assistant widely considered a massive downgrade from Google Assistant?

What spurred this question was, it now requires me to unlock my phone just to add something to a stupid Google Keep grocery list. But this isn't a support request -- I just wonder if there is anyone out there going, Wow, what a great upgrade! Or is the general sense that it is LESS capable?

what is a basic system feature google quietly locked behind restrictions that completely ruined your workflow

it feels like every single new android release comes with google removing old permissions or forcing apps to jump through extra steps just to do basic tasks. seeing that android 18 is completely blocking apps from using direct contact write permissions is just the latest example.

what is a classic open android feature or system permission that google locked down or completely ruined over the years under the excuse of privacy?
