Wow, Google really locking Android down to a closed system, where no normal person will no longer be able to install Apps from other sources than Google Play anymore.
Really time to improve the already existing alternatives to a level where it just works for everybody (even with banking and government apps).
Dear EU: can you please sue Google for malicious compliance so that it really hurts them?

@bene64@chaos.social coincidentally, I decided, just yesterday, to stop trying to get my Android apps into the Play Store. Totally coincidentally. #KeepAndroidOpen

@bene64@chaos.social this is just FUD, sorry. Everybody who can install F-Droid, can also pass those 4 steps.
