Living in the EU and Latin America, I can safely say this has never been an issue before with the exception of Proton Mail which took me 8 confirmations and 5 retries

If you're really paranoid about it, you can download AppVerifier and have Obtainium automatically send the downloaded apk to it and verify the sums before installing

Aren't psychiatrists the ones with more in depth knowledge and the ones that can legally prescribe medications?

It is very much actively maintained other than this supposed vacation from the developer. Everything else is purely speculation and what seems to be impersonation of the dev on the fediverse.

They can't link because it doesn't exist. This is a green account with quite a negative reputation, their comment is just a bogus line that is brushing people off from this app. They even misspelled the app's name in their misinformation attempt.

Welcome to the rest of the world mate. This issue here is another "no way to prevent this, says only nation where this happens" as The Onion would say.

That's pretty much how the rest of the world works, either delivery to pickup points or delivery to person only

Mozilla is definitely trying to diversify their income to not depend on Google, but let us not forget that despite Firefox's user share declining, their AI and ad friendly CEO keeps getting raises

in In my opinion, it's likely that nothing will change. If this ever happens, Google might setup an "Android Alliance" with other OEMs which will reach agreements to keep Android as is but for the USA lawmakers and such it'll seem like everything has changed.

For Firefox, I believe Google will keep injecting money in Mozilla as long as it keeps them from having Chrome being targeted on an antitrust/competitive lawsuit or ruling.

Nothing, really. Usually in the USA Apple escapes this type of rulings because they don't have a monopoly on anything and/or because it's argued they build the hardware for which their software run on so there isn't anti competition (which in my opinion is pure bullshit, but what can I do?)

All Steam games have SteamDRM and you cannot run them without Steam or without the license, otherwise you could just buy a game, backup the installed files, refund the game and still have complete access to it.

On the other hand, it's quite easy to bypass that DRM with a crack.
