@fdroidorg I've noticed the banner a day or two ago. Let's hope it helps! As for AI? In my opinion, any use thereof in an app should be labeled an anti-feature.
@fdroidorg Speaking of Android being locked down by Google, two weeks ago I saw a post on your forum about a Free Android SDK project that could be a drop-in replacement for the standard SDK (that creates a legally binding contract with Google on current ToS). Sadly, the last message is from October.
Is there any progress on this front, or Google already managed to lock down this part of Android?
@lily_linck It's a complex subject, that's the big thread where stuff happens, feel free to help or follow.
@fdroidorg #ImageToolbox gets #AI is correct. It is local and works if the phone is not providing compute, this new feature is not fun to use. However, #DeJPEG, #upscale, #colorization, #enhancement is now available. Background removing offers also more models for the #FLOSS version.
@devSJR @fdroidorg ImageToolbox is awesome.
