You’ve already linked a pay wall bypass in the comments, if anyone would like to find it, it’s not hard to scroll.
sabreW4K3@lazysoci.alOPto Technology@beehaw.org•Google's Hotseat Hypocrisy - Open Web Advocacy1·5 days agoThe majority of users don’t replace their launcher and as such, where Google can, it should change the browser. If that code is baked into launcher3, most OEM and third-party launchers will pick it up too. There’s no excuse not to change Chrome for the user choice on the default launcher.

I agree. But it doesn’t mean these people can’t do good things and this system seems a good thing to me. Is it perfect? No, as you said
this kind of system seems limited to small cash crops rather than staple foods.
So that’s a problem. But it’s a step in the right direction.
Dyson has personally done far more to harm British food security than this gadget could offset. He was an ardent Brexiteer, which resulted in substantial barriers to importing food from our closest neighbors.
He is absolutely and unequivocally a wanker. But if he’s done something good here, it will mean alternatives will become available and that’s a win for everyone.
