I have used it for maybe a year and I never had any problems. Then again, I'm hardly a power user, so it makes sense that other people might have different experiences. :)
It's dumb, but if it catches on we can begin referring to his Chinese colleague as Poohtin. So I'm all for it.
A personal recommendation is to use Droidify, it's just a great F-droid front-end.
You can download the APK here: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.looker.droidify/
If they're from F-Droid you're good; if you're on Google Play I doubt they'll update anything to get more permissions without your consent.
However, if the developer has taken a turn for the worse (which this post seems to indicate), you might not receive any more updates for your F-Droid software, and you might get to a point where you don't want to install updates from Google Play. Software that cannot be updated is generally not a good thing.
Furthermore, these apps deal with somewhat sensitive information by default, and I wouldn't want to use apps developed by a company I don't trust if I don't absolutely have to. :)
Yeah, sorry, didn't mean to come across as aggressive or dismissive of your point. Reading it back I realize "?!" comes across as a bit much.
I'm just a bit tired that every time we learn in some new way that the Republican party consists of a bunch of authoritarians we're supposed to act as if we just learned something new.
"Turns out"?! Trump was literally recorded calling around threatening people not to count votes. The effort to rig the election was made entirely in the open, the Republicans were basically talking about it on Fox News.
Etar is great!
Thanks! Needed a replacement for Simple Contacts after this, Connect You seems like a much better app anyway. :)
- You don't like the Google app
- You don't want to use Google apps out of principle
- You're using a version of Android where Google apps are not installed by default, so you need to install something
There are a bunch of those "simple" apps on F-droid, such as Simple Contacts, Simple Calendar, and Simple Camera. I cannot find Simple Gallery in F-droid any more, it seems to have been replaced by its Fossify equivalent already.
In light of this, it could be an idea to check if you have any of those apps installed and consider replacing them with an alternative. I was using Simple Contacts until now (only listed as "Contacts" in my apps), so I guess it's time to make some changes.
This is what I don't get here. Why the hell do people interpret this as if it's spreading Israeli propaganda?
We know Hamas killed substantial number of innocent people and are keeping hostages.
We know these hostages are kept somewhere in Gaza.
We know Israel is bombing the shit out of Gaza, actively destroying civilian infrastructure.
What we learn from this is that Israel has indeed killed hostages in their indiscriminate bombing, that Hamas seem to be keeping hostages alive when they are not killed by Israeli bombs, and that being held hostage by Hamas in Gaza is still an awful situation to be in.
If this makes Hamas look bad it's because they are bad.
If you think it makes Israel look good you're sick in the head - this is triggered by them intentionally bombing Gaza until there's nothing left.
If you're upset that it makes a Jewish person look human then fuck right off you worthless piece of shit.
