@anthropy The issue is that 4 billion people will be disuaded to install F-Droid right away. You run Google-free? Great. You're the 0.000001 percenter. The rest? It appears that 60% of users get scared and can't press 6 buttons on screen to install a game, ask Epic. Now, imagine it does not take 6 seconds to install F-Droid, but 24h, how exactly will you guide your friend to install a cool app from #FDroid when Google asks them if they are being coerced? Will you be with them tomorrow too?

Messed around with an older Kindle Fire tablet this weekend, and stumbled-discovered you can side-load #fdroid through the Silk Browser. From there, you can install any of #deltachat, #ironfox, #orbot, #comaps,... even #supertuxcart

Installing apps through #AuroraStore is hit-or-miss, where the 'misses' are very informative: #firefox & #fennec must have hooks to Google Play Services, because they immediately crash upon opening in FireOS.

New blog post about Google's Android Developer Verification changes and why they're bad for users. I've included some suggestions for what you can do to help.

Oh, if I could guarantee at least €750 per month in donations, I would happily quit my day job and devote myself full‑time to #FreeSoftware. I’d expand my current contributions to #Debian, #GNOME, #Ubuntu, #FDroid, and other projects that interest me but for which I currently have no spare time.

Any ideas on how this could work for an individual developer stuck in Iran?

#Fedilab and #HolosSocial allow using the offline translator for #Android, and the app is available on #FDroid.
I would like to encourage every F-Droid user to use it and enable it in Fedilab.

https://f-droid.org/packages/dev.davidv.translator/

I will improve both apps to capture the translation and go back, because their app allows it.

⚠️ De EFF waarschuwt dat Googles ontwikkelaarsverificatie "een weg naar censuur" creëert. Ontwikkelaars in restrictieve landen, anonieme open-source bijdragers en onderhouders van privacytools behoren tot de zwaarst getroffenen.

Wat zijn 'restrictieve landen'?

Kort gezegd: landen met zware internetcensuur, waar de overheid streng controleert wat je online mag zien, zeggen en maken.

Juist in die landen — en in opkomende economieën — lopen app-makers nu gevaar. Europa wilde met nieuwe regels de macht van Big Tech breken, maar Google reageert met verstikkende identificatie-eisen voor ontwikkelaars.

De ironie is pijnlijk: regels tégen Big Tech raken nu juist de kleine, onafhankelijke softwaremakers. Knappe koppen die met minimale middelen prachtige vrije software schrijven, worden buitengesloten door westerse bureaucratie. Dit is een directe aanval op de FOSS-gemeenschap en vrije alternatieven zoals F-Droid.

Google is groot geworden dankzij deze wereldwijde community. Het techbedrijf moet verder kijken dan de grenzen van de VS en de EU. Digitale vrijheid is een wereldwijd recht. Bescherm de opensource-wereld in plaats van deze kapot te reguleren.
