The LG G8 Review: Solid, But Not Great

What ever happened to Android One?
Unless I'm mistaken, the only company to release phones this year with Android One is Nokia.
Is there any particular reason for this? Am I right in thinking that companies that did previously offer Android Obe have decided to drop it? And if so why?
I can't help but feel like this is real wasted opportunity for companies. I'd be infinitely more inclined to buy a new Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo if it had Android One or is it really just not in their interests to do so?...

Is the way Google Podcasts updates acceptable?
My Podcasts app hasn't updated since June 2018. A few days after initial release.
However last night I noticed the Sleep timer had been added. And over the year I've noticed a few other things added too.
So everything must be added server side. Why are they doing it this way? It means when new things are added you aren't told about it through an update and it means you lost control over updates. Ie, you can't, for whatever reason, decide not to update.

What Google Messages Needs
Since Allo is no more, unfortunately I was pushed to another platform. Google's decision to discontinue Allo was supposedly because they moved the engineers from Allo over to Messages. This is all well and good, but Messages has virtually **NONE** of the features from Allo. The only thing they've apparently done is gently revamp the UI so it sports Material Design 2, instead of Material Design 1. Granted, MD2 is a welcome change, as is Dark Mode and the Messages on the Web feature.
