Here's a great video by the German-speaking YouTuber @TheMorpheus on the topic of "The End of Free App Stores." I highly recommend watching it. Please like and share the video if you enjoyed it. This topic should reach as many people as possible.

this is not just a #Texas problem, It doesn't matter where you live, it sets a precedent. #Louisiana and #Utah already passed similar laws. Over a dozen other states are pushing the same template. Once one jurisdiction normalizes age-gated internet access, every government gets a blueprint.

#MassSurveillance isn't a side effect, tracking people's actions is every authority's wet dream since the dawn of time.

⚠️ Texas Users. Important!

Google has notified me that Texas SB 2420 is now in effect
This law requires age verification and tracking via #Google 's proprietary API

Power Ampache 2 will NEVER implement age verification or ANY proprietary tracking library
Principles aren't negotiable

This stand may get #PowerAmpache2 kicked off #PlayStore in #Texas
No worries, #freedom lives elsewhere. Get PA2 from #FDroid, the #Matrix Space, #Telegram

Stay free. Stay untracked

@y20k
Hi y20k, are you planning to release your “Transistor” app on the #Google #PlayStore? Since Google makes it very difficult for regular users to access alternative app #stores like #FDroid, it means the #Transistor app can no longer be installed.
Transistor is your best app for listening to #music on a #smartphone.

Android bekommt integrierte Anrufaufzeichnung.

Nie wieder wichtige Details aus einem Gespräch vergessen: Google testet für Android eine neue Funktion, mit der sich Telefonate direkt über die offizielle Telefon-App mitschneiden lassen. Die Aufnahme erfolgt bequem per Fingertipp während des laufenden Gesprächs.

El sistema de vigilancia individual de ti, tus movimientos y de tu #privacidad #MAID, en #android #AAID, que junto a APP's como #tiktok y #GPS permite localizarte en cualquier momento en cualquier lugar esta en la base de tu instalación android y no hace falta que instales el #playStore para estar expuesto a los servicios secretos privados y estatales del mundo entero.

Aquí imágenes como encontrarlo y como restablecer o borrar este elemento fatal para la soberanía (mental) de cualquier persona.


#Google missbraucht seine Marktmacht als Gatekeeper über den #PlayStore, um konkurrierende Apps in ihrer Funktionalität einzuschränken.

Beispiel #NextcloudApp: Google erlaubte plötzlich nur noch Synchronisation von Fotos und Videos, aus "Sicherheitsbedenken" - Google-Apps durften hingegen weiterhin alle Dateien synchronisieren:
nextcloud.com/blog/nextcloud-a…

Empfehlung: Android-Apps wo möglich aus #FDroid statt PlayStore beziehen - keine Einschränkungen und oft hochqualitativere Apps.

En Google ya no queda ni una neurona activa. Con esto ya no hay excusa para comprar un smartphone que no permita instalar otras roms que se salten esta medida. Si mi smartphone dependiera de lo que traía preinstalado de fábrica y de lo que Google ofrece en su Play Store sería un pisapapeles.

Google möchte zukünftig das #sideloading, also das Installieren von #Apps am #PlayStore vorbei auf zertifizierten #Android-Smartphones nur noch für Apps von verifizierten Entwicklern erlauben. Ich darf also zukünftig ohne Googles Segen keine *von mir* entwickelte App auf *meinem eigenen* Smartphone installieren. Nach der Entfernung der Pixel-Device-Trees aus dem Android Open Source Project und der Entkopplung der Android-Entwicklung vom #AOSP ist das ein weiterer Sargnagel für die Offenheit von Android. "Verifiziert" meint übrigens jedes Gerät, das mit Google-Apps, angeführt vom Play Store, ausgeliefert wird. Eine wirklich beschissene Idee, erst recht in Zeiten von #Chatkontrolle und #Trump. heise.de/news/Android-Google-v…


Kann mir zufällig jemand sagen, weshalb #Jitsi in #FDroid seit 10 Monaten kein Update mehr erhalten hat? 🤔 Neuere Versionen gab es zwischenzeitlich und diese sind auch im #PlayStore verfügbar.




#Google arbitrarily messing around and removing well known #FOSS apps from #PlayStore seems to be peaking right now: First #Conversation had a fresh build being denied, now #Öffi has been entirely removed (not for the time) with no reason being disclosed.

That is why we desperately need usable and free #AppStore alternatives such as #FDroid, where we find most of our #FreeSoftware apps. Yes, I know it has security problems by design. But right now the alternatives fail when it comes to more important aspects:

#Obtainium is a good alternative for technophiles, who exactly know what they are looking for. Too complicated if you are used to a central source. #Accrescent might have good security standards regarding its architecture but the lack of app information, weird app listings (some including loads of trackers) and lack of basic usability features makes it very hard to recommend for the common user. And telling people to directly download of APKs is like randomly downloading EXEs on Windows. What could possibly go wrong? 🤷


Uma alternativa genérica (não só de open source) à Play Store?

É para um telemóvel velho com Android 6 (a Play Store deixou de funcionar nestes telefones este mesmo mês).

Agora mesmo está com ApkPure, mas está cheio de publicidade...

Obrigado!

A wild ZWSP appears!

In case you’re not fluent in Unicode and percent-encoding: %E2%80%8B is a zero-width-space, an invisible character which helps set line-breaks correctly.

It seems that broken links with ZWSPs or unicode control characters like the left-to-right mark are a widespread problem, opening a door to cybersquatting.

Or may I suggest the name ‘typography squatting’?
