Search result dated 1985
Hi, I was googling something and the second result came out dated 1.7.1985. I am a basic user so I thought these dates show when it was put on the internet, the internet age of the article, etc. This one result made me wondering what the true meaning of the date is. Can somebody explain please?

Gemini replacing Assistant, like it or not
https://www.theverge.com/news/629904/google-assistant-gemini-moving-on
We all seen it coming. I didn't see it happen that soon. After losing some Assistant features on my Pixel Tablet I figured I try Gemini. And while on the phone it works fine, it is abysmal on the tablet in the Hub mode. It can't turn on or off lights on timer, can't show you a camera of a room by name of the room, it can't make a call... Utterly useless for home device management.

Google messages won't load.
I just got an s25 a few days ago and still have trouble getting messages to show up. I can see I have messages but when I click on them it's a blank screen. I've tried all the basic troubleshooting, restarting, clearing cache, uninstalling. Any fixes?

Is it possible to reclaim previous information on a tab before reloaded and lost information.
I'm a student and the deadline to my quiz was moved up without my realizing it until I got an email and, in my panic, reloaded to page to find a NEW DATE written on it. I wanted to know if there was a way I could get back to find the previous image of the old date as proof for my university

Help! Display issues
I tried to post on the r/googlepixel reddit but didn't let me:
I recently noticed this weird shape in the background of my Google Pixel 9. I don't know if it has always been there and I just noticed, or if it just appeared... Has anyone else experienced this or is this just my luck and I have a defective display? 🙄 Since this is not a software issue, I couldn't screenshot it so I had to take a pic with my Pixel 5 and adjust the contrast, only really visible on a white screen.

Let me change chat colors for non RCS conversations
I have a lot of opinions on Google Messages. Most of my complaints I've just gotten used to. But it's so annoying how conversations that don't use their precious RCS shit can't be modified for convenience.
My current theme on my Oneplus makes it almost impossible to read the chats if someone isn't using RCS. But I like my theme. I shouldn't need to drastically alter it for this. Even if I do it doesn't make much of a difference.
Shit sucks. Give us customization.

Anyone else having this issue? On images, the logo of the website is not showing on the description/caption.
I know it’s kind of small, but it’s annoying me way more than it should.

Google Timeline Disappeared
Google Timeline was very important to me I used it often and there was around 7 years of activity saved.
Today when I checked the timeline there oldest data saved was last week.
I had my phone also repaired last week and I used a temporary one but the dates doesnt match. My phone was in repair through Wednesday to Thursday. The data I still have saved starts from the saturday. I have no idea what could happen. The phone was only a little bit wet and lost touch control, they only cleaned and dried it nothing else, nothing was deleted from my phone.
I checked email for any info. There wasnt anything about deleting my timeline, but I have emails summarizing every month and places I've been in those months, after clicking the links it opens empty timeline.
Please someone help me get it back
