F-Droid exploring to include paid apps, in-apps, subscription, and ads in app (f-droid.org)
 

Thoughts?

Google Play Store listing apps installed from F-Droid that it cannot update in c/mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world
[โ€“] yolo@r.nf 2 points 6 months ago

yea, and people here suggesting f-droid to change package names are crazy. F-Droid's goal is not to mess with developers code at all and provide builds as is from the source code.

Essentially the apps have same package name but different signatures and the app store that installed it should be the only one to recognize and update it.

But Google is likely trying this dark pattern to sway people away from F-Droid or alt stores by making users uninstall these apps and install it from the Google Play Store.

It's been going on for a while and is annoying af.

US vetoes UN resolution calling for Gaza ceasefire in c/worldnews@lemmy.ml
[โ€“] yolo@r.nf 25 points 10 months ago

UN is the change.org of the real world. The idea is great but it only works on extremely rare cases. I know its purpose is to stop next world war but it should stop trying to seem like a platform for discussion as there is no discussion to be had when you give someone power to veto any resolution.

Anyone getting updates from lemmit.online? (r.nf)

Lemmit online is a lemmy instance that mirrors content from some subs from reddit. It seems to be federated and not blocked but when you subscribe to any of its community, you don't get any new posts in your feed. Any clue about why?
