Ok, maybe idiot is more than a little pejorative... I shall call my new pixel 8 my noisy, demanding halfwit instead, mm'kay? I just murdered the monster that came with the phone and, I am slowly setting it up but, today (36 hrs after installing GOS) I got and still get notifications saying (paraphrased of course) "playstore attempted to send a notification blah blah..." and something or other " it can't live without allowing unknown apps to install..." yada yada and, a stern "we recommend allowing this" etc.
I hate notifications!/ However I shall concede a few are actually required. Grudgingly... My pixel 6 has never once exhibited such tantrums but, I entered an account email into playstore on that one. I also suspect my partial install of Droid-ify (emphasis on ify? Lol) and Aurora Store, sans a gobble account email address might be why I am being hectored mercilessly? (Again I may be being a teensie bit hyperbolic about notifications... Did I mention I hate them?)
My profound and limitless adoration is bestowed upon any and/or all who might lower themselves into the toxic cesspit I swim in, and set me straight. Forcefully is fine.
Excelsior!
edit: I should have included the notificationz are from GmsCompat about missing permissionz.
