During the migration to #AGP9, I noticed that the (Triple-T) Gradle Play Publisher plugin is now in maintenance mode. We currently use it to publish an app to the Play Store from our CI pipeline. Even though there’s already a pull request to make the plugin compatible with AGP 9.0, I’m not entirely comfortable relying on it long-term. Do you know of any good alternatives? How do you typically publish an Android app to the Play Store from CI?

ah yes… being incompatible crap that can't use system installed versions because it breakes everything on each release and requires you to fix your build on particular version and stick to it… and install it each time is such a brilliant idea!
Especially in the current day and age, when something constantly breaks (aws, cloudflare…)
all hail fucking #gradle !
And yet #maven #mvn nicely trots along, upgrading in the background and I don't even have to think if it updated or not (save for the upcomming #maven 4 release, but it's like "one in a generation" kind of thing…)
