Android 14 seems to have quietly eliminated a trick some apps were using to keep themselves alive when the OS tried to kill them.
As spotted by Greenify developer Oasis Feng, Android now freezes a package's cgroup before killing it. Control groups (cgroups) is a Linux kernel feature that organizes processes into groups so their resource usage can be monitored/controlled.

Does your phone happen to be made by one of the vendors ranking high on this list? If so, that’s not on Google (well, you could argue that Google could take more control over Android and force vendors not to do this, but that’s another discussion - now we’re talking about a fix Google made for apps evading its battery optimizations).
Because I’ve personally had no problem with apps like AccuBattery and GadgetBridge staying awake when set to unrestricted.
