@andymouse@todon.eu Basically, it only doesn't effect you if you don't run stock android, and even then it does because it hampers people developing FOSS apps you would use. @IzzyOnDroid@floss.social

@theeclecticdyslexic@mstdn.social Yes I thought so.. thanks for the info. Well, I wonder how many on stock Android go through the pains of donating to developers? I'd think most of them are "download and see if it works" and that's it. Then it will stop working, and they will use corpo spyware shit instead. It will be interesting to see what this move by Google does to donations to good open source projects. I'd guess Google is betting on that people will just give up on open source. I think people will double down on it, and donate more, because it because even more obvious that it's the only option to keep OSS alive. Maybe I'm naive. @IzzyOnDroid@floss.social
