Oh really? This ban won't effect people who use (for example) F-Droid to get the app?? That's great to hear tbh. Hopefully this stupid ass decision will have the effect of turning more people on to FOSS stuff more than it will actually prevent people from using TikTok.
It's really hard to bypass ip bans. Tik tok in India has been non existent since the ban.
Nope. You can't access tiktok through vpn in India. You need a patched/modded app. I live in India and I've tried doing that. It's a non-existent platform here. Bans will affect user engagement.
ok, thanks for the info. I don't know a lot about how this kind of thing works (clearly), I just try to use and support FOSS and "piracy" whenever possible.
Aurora displays currently no app, be it anonymous or with login. Anyone knows why? I need it to reinstall my banking access app, dammit.
Thanks, i use APKupdater for now.
