⚠️ ATTENTION #Android USERS ⚠️
Seems that Google is doubling down on their decision to prevent side-loading on Android. On September 2026, they will demand that all software installed on your device must be published by a verified developer.
For the developer it means paying a 100$ fee and sharing their government-issued ID with Google (and/or their verification 3rd party).
Many developers, myself included, make free games, free software, and sometimes legally-gray stuff like emulators, and they either don't want to pay, or share their private info with an untrustworthy partner.
Read more about the topic and how each of you can help here:
👉 https://keepandroidopen.org/Even if you just raised awareness by talking to your peers or reposting this, it would increase our chances to pressure Google into rolling back their decision that is not motivated by user's safety, but rather their corporate bottom line.

🎉 J’ai enfin réussi à installer @e_mydata de @murena sur ma #SamsungGalaxy Tab S5e !
Adieu Samsung OS, bonjour liberté numérique.Objectif : m’éloigner de la politique monopolistique, intrusive et de plus en plus fermée de #Google — notamment avec la fin progressive de l’installation d’applications hors #PlayStore (voir keepandroidopen.org).
Installé via un PC sous #Linux, avec #heimdall pour flasher la ROM.

Tenemos un problema con los sistemas mayoriatarios de #smartphones. #Android siempre se ha caracterizado por cierta apertura y una capacidad de "jugar" con el sistema, personalizarlo, adaptarlo, crear #CustomROMs, pero cada vez menos. En septiembre se cierra una puerta importante si no lo impedimos.

An open letter to Sundar Pichai, CEO of #Google about their announced policy requiring all #Android app developers to register centrally with G. themselves in order to distribute applications outside of the Google Play Store.
As written it should be in Google 's self interest not to require that: "The strength of Android... has historically been its openness, and Google must work towards restoring its role as a faithful steward of that trust."

🚨 🚀 ANOTHER open letter to Google! Because nothing says "take us seriously" like a strongly-worded email to a multibillion-dollar company. 😂 Oh, the horror of app developers having to *gasp* register—how will they ever survive such tyranny?! 📜👎

Menschen mit Diabetes programmieren für sich und für andere Menschen mit Diabetes.
Apps, die so funktionieren, wie wir es brauchen, anstatt so, wie ein Gerätehersteller glaubt, dass es richtig wäre.
Google wird ab September 2026 das freie Programmieren für Android einschränken und die Installation freier Apps verbieten.
🚧 Protestiere dagegen:

Nach kurzer Recherche festgestellt das die Matrix Signal Bridge und #Flare von @schmiddionmobile
die Optionen sind die man hat um Signal stabil unter #postmarketos laufen zu lassenZumindest wenn man kein #Waydroid will. Das hat mich im Test nicht überzeugt.
Letzte Hoffnung Google macht das Offene Android so schnell kaputt (https://keepandroidopen.org) das Signal reagiert und endlich! einen nativen Linux client raus bringt.

F-Droid schrieb den folgenden Beitrag Tue, 17 Feb 2026 14:05:42 +0100 The #FDroid website has a new banner on top to remind visitors that #Google did not change course and #Android will be locked-down in under 200 days.
If you care about the freedom to control your devices and care about the privacy of you data, please contact your representative and make your voice heard.
https://keepandroidopen.org/ (thanks @marcprux) has the resources to guide you.
We know users will rarely visit the site so the Client(s) will get a banner soon too.
Thank you for your support!

...uuuugh!!! they dont want is to have anything!
per #google: "Starting in September 2026, Android will require all apps to be registered by verified developers in order to be installed on certified #Android devices
Until such time...we must believe what is stated on their official page: that all apps from non-registered developers will be blocked once their lock-down goes into effect." -
Just got a reminder by #Obtainium concerning #Android #freedom.
The core of what it is about ist the following: "In August 2025, #Google announced [ -> https://developer.android.com/developer-verification ] that starting next year, it will no longer be possible to develop apps for the Android platform without first #registering centrally with Google."
I think I need to remind about that too:

Google's new "Freedom Fee" plan is like buying a ticket to a concert where you get to sing backup vocals whether you want to or not. 🎤🎟️ The tech giant warmly invites #developers to join their exclusive club by charging them for the privilege of existing. 🙄✨ Get ready to sign petitions while #Google pretends to listen! 📝🔊

Google no prohíbe instalar apps fuera de Play Store, pero hará que te rindas intentándolo https://www.larazon.es/tecnologia-consumo/google/google-no-prohibe-instalar-apps-fuera-de-play-store-pero-hara-que-te-rindas-intentandolo_2026032069bd051c3156ba241d5d96e6.htmlLo reconozco, me he quedado con este artículo solamente por su titular. Me parece perfecto, al grano y bien clarito: no es que Google vaya a impedir instalar apps desde fuera de su ecosistema sino que va a complicar y ralentizar tanto el proceso que nos va a quitar las ganas de usar esas alternativas.
F-Droid es el mejor repositorio alternativo a la tienda oficial de Google. Está llena de aplicaciones de código abierto y estas nuevas restricciones que plantean para Android les hará la vida imposible. Hace un mes y medio ya publicaron una carta abierta en contra de esta medida y luego se sumaron también desde Keep Android Open.
Quiero ahondar en esta última plataforma, pues Keep Android Open es la opción ideal para mantenerse informado sobre la posible evolución de este tema.

Moinsen.
Heute ist mal wieder ein "digitaler Unabhängigkeitstag".
Und ich habe es geschafft, die im Beitrag von @[email protected] erwähnte Dokumentation bei ARTE vollständig zu sehen - übrigens via Zapp, einer freien App, die im F-Droid-Repository zu finden ist.
Gefährliche Apps - Im Netz der Datenhändler
https://www.arte.tv/de/videos/123951-000-A/gefaehrliche-apps-im-netz-der-datenhaendler/
52 Min. | Verfügbar bis zum 14.07.2026Für mich nicht wirklich Neues und leider wird auch nicht wirklich auf Gegenmaßnahmen eingegangen (im Gegenteil, es wird einmal erwähnt, man hätte keine Wahl - was schlicht falsch ist). Dennoch sollte diese Doku über abfließende Daten, den Handel damit und die sich damit ergebenden gefährlichen Möglichkeiten eigentlich von der gesamten Bevölkerung verinnerlicht werden.
Vermeidet unfreie Apps, prüft Apps auf deren Verhalten vor der Installation, dichtet Eure Geräte ab, setzt Schutzmaßnahmen ein (filtert Traffic), verzichtet auf Registrierungen, wenn nicht notwendig (insbesondere bei bekannten Datenkraken), macht Euch schlau!
Und bedenkt, daß es normalerweise nichts kostenlos gibt... möglicherweise seid Ihr nämlich das Produkt. Und ja, wer dies liest, ist vermutlich im Fediverse unterwegs und daher wahrscheinlich schon im Bilde... ;-)
Und übrigens, Android sollte offen gehalten werden!
