@TheHackersNews F*ck closed systems, use non-g*ogle tech: - @mullvadnet VPN - http://ddocs.new not G docs - @GrapheneOS if u have a pixel - @brave browser not chrome

@TheHackersNews Mod apk?

@TheHackersNews Definitely moving to Apple once this happens.

@TheHackersNews Is this the moment Musk forks Android and releases the X phone? I'll buy it.

@TheHackersNews lmao, I'll be happy to root it

@TheHackersNews This is genuinely making me want to get a Pixel and install LineageOS. This is such crap

@TheHackersNews From the replies, it seems most people didn’t understand what this actually means. The only change is that you now need to be a verified developer, and they’re creating a console for those who publish outside the Play Store as well as for students.

@TheHackersNews They just don't want me to use YouTube Revanced. 😂😜

@TheHackersNews We need a Linux phone, a real Linux phone.

@TheHackersNews No problem, use MicroG on an AOSP (without GAPPS)

@TheHackersNews A welcome change to strengthen Android ecosystem

@TheHackersNews Daym. The one advantage over iOS will be gone.

@TheHackersNews Hey, look at that Android nerds, you can’t say Apple never does anything first now!

@TheHackersNews Centralized control always comes disguised as “safety.” What it really means is less freedom, less choice, and more surveillance. This is why decentralization and privacy matter. Infrastructure like @SecretNetwork gives people back control, letting users decide what runs on

@TheHackersNews This is bull crap. I have a couple of apps i made myself and run on the phone... Never gonna distribute to the asshat play store... And now they will kill these because i ain't a verified dev? WTF man ... fuck @GooglePlay

@TheHackersNews @GrapheneOS is the way

@TheHackersNews Back to iOS I go

@TheHackersNews Whats the process to get a certificat for signing? Can I get one without money and ID?

@TheHackersNews So what’s the point of android then lol

@TheHackersNews Hopefully this solution will make Android phones more secure.

@TheHackersNews No but really this was the PRIMARY reason to go Android over Apple what could possibly be the play here

@TheHackersNews is this good or bad ? @M_Solidus

@TheHackersNews There's always a solution, you just have to adopt it... https://e.foundation/

@TheHackersNews This is the only reason I put up with Android.

@TheHackersNews google stole the open source android.

@TheHackersNews Android is about to die, what's the alternative?

@TheHackersNews Lmao they can enjoy their closed ecosystem. Smart people will load up a different OS on their Android phone and carry on.

@TheHackersNews @dotun_e ur biggest gripe with iOS, ur beloved Android go soon join 😂

@TheHackersNews Brb gonna vibecode a mobile Linux OS..

@TheHackersNews wow took them that long to wanna do it but why next year

@TheHackersNews So that means Apple will be more open than Android lol

@TheHackersNews More reasons for other big corp like @xai to starts their own.

@TheHackersNews AOSP won't be affected with this. Move to FOSS while you still can!

@TheHackersNews cool, now everyone will get an iPhone :D

@TheHackersNews At this point people can just buy an iPhone if this is the case.

@TheHackersNews I'm interested about the branding process that phone OS makers used to rebrand "putting software of your choice on your device" as abnormal, a thing called "sideloading", with "downloading" being redefined to "installing only software the corporation finds acceptable".
