Thing is, not that many apps use Google Play Services. In fact, afaik F-droid explicitly forbids the use of gsm. I’d understand blocking sideloading of the apps that do use it, but if they are going block every single one, that seems a bit draconian and spiteful. Like I understand why they would be displeased with the harsh treatment they received from the US, but I don’t think revenge is a good reason to hamper the user experience.

Honestly I like ribbons quite a lot as a design framework and hell, even padding can improve the UX, it’s just a shame that neither of these elements have been used well in a decade.

Dunno man, it is possible to accept they make good games while still condemning their corporate bs…

They gotta be desperate for the money considering how much of it they’re hemorrhaging every waking minute.

Captured? Give them back!

I really like the filter selection. It’s the only open source app I know of that lets me blur images and that’s pretty much all photo editing I do on my phone.

Haven’t tried making memes, but this is a very powerful image editing app: https://github.com/T8RIN/ImageToolbox

tim sweeney i think?

i mean images allow for syntax highlighting to carry over, so I prefer them if my relation with the code/log is going to be read-only

At this rate in 2028 they’ll be at -11th

Still easier than half the captchas I see these days

Fair enough. I sure hope that “business” feature stays business-only or opti-in.

In a way I get it since from my experience the C-suites really like not writing their emails themselves so this is their way of trying not to lose existing corporate customers, however I do see how their lack of transparency is concerning.

Oh, ok my bad 😅

Hmm… Is that a problem with their more recent endeavors? I myself have only used their email and pasword manager services and I find their feature sets to be sufficient.

Also, marketing containig the letters “A” and “I” does not invalidate the product. While I absolutely despise seeing AI plastered everywhere, it is true that ML algorithms are often incredibly useful (even if LLMs aren’t)

You know, people are mad at this for some reason, but while I don’t see myself using this ever, I’m really glad a more privacy conscious alternative to the google ecosystem is growing.(Even if this product of theirs doesn’t compete with them, many others do)

Less screen real estate for the website and we get… Let’s see… A back button that is already handled by the system? A new tab button that saves an entire click?

Sure hope there will be an option to keep the current design…

Yes. I, for one, need to validate my hatered for a dev/publisher by not just claiming that a recent game was bad but by also posthumously digging up their entire catalogue and calling it trash as well.

That one time Bethesda wrote an interesting quest. (I’m sorry, Starfield has taken a toll on my mental wellbeing)

Haven’t heard that name in like 6 years…

Oh, I’m well aware of that, but there are so few cities that have been mapped to the degree to compete with gmaps, that I doubt we ever will reach that level.

Also reviews. I’m not sure if there even is a way to fix that without creating a separate program with a separate ecosystem in the process…
