It's been a long known issue [0] that cert providers had to account for, but apparently not anymore [1] from Android 14
> Android 14 makes root certificates updatable via Google Play
> Android's root store used to require an OTA update to add or remove root certificates. That won't be the case in Android 14.
TIL there's a workaround though [0]:
> If you use Android 7.0 or earlier, you may need to take action to ensure you can still access websites secured by Let’s Encrypt certificates. We recommend installing and using Firefox Mobile, which uses its own trust store instead of the Android OS trust store, and therefore trusts ISRG Root X1.
