@apps As soon as I heard the issues I moved to fdroid.
Of course Google are trying to kill that too.. so it may be a temporary respite.
I'd hate to be stuck on IOS which although they're entirely closed are a known quantity and not trying to actively kill development..
@apps
I have no Play store on some devices.
To be fair, right now this is something I can still do within the corporate agreement I have with my employer. If I'm unsuccessful in continuing to advocate for 3rd party app stores, I could face a situation where I "have to" uninstall because I can't continue to use the fdroid store.
Not everyone has complete freedom of choice in which app stores they use.
@nolsen311
That's completely understandable, not everyone has that freedom. That said, I always keep the Play Store APK available for direct download. This is the latest one: https://codeberg.org/tom79/Fedilab/releases/tag/3.43.3
The download link is always included in the release notes.
@apps
Hmm, for those of us downloading from Codeberg, do we need to switch to F-Droid?
@nanianmichaels
No, I will keep attaching the Google version, but now I will remove all the restrictions I had to add for Google Play.
@apps
I try to fully abandon the play store myself.
