I’m really struggling to understand how Android works: if an app has notifications turned off (and permissions revoked) and is restricted from running in the background, why has it spent 4 hours running in the background over the last 24 hours, becoming the second-highest app for battery drain?

@stefano sorry for becoming a Fedi "reply guy" offering unsolicited advice, but in case you have a Pixel phone, I would highly highly recommend GrapheneOS. There are none of these shenanigans there (you can even have Wifi and Bluetooth turned off automatically after inactivity)
Second that.
I got pixel just so I can run #GrapheneOS.
All the evil shit is sandboxed.
And you can have multiple profiles.
If you are going to a fascist state, it takes 1 minute to wipe your real profile and you just have only owner and "I'm harmless and hold no opinions beyond cats" profile.
@_elena This phone has been running on GrapheneOS for more than 6 months 🙂
But for some reasons I had to switch it back to its Android release. That's why I'm so upset: I know the difference 🙂
I also have my "old" Pixel 7 - where most of my data is - and it's powered by GrapheneOS
