I think you haven't seen how notification bar of a typical android user over 40 looks like. It's usually 3 meters of random application bloat, music/movie/audiobook ads and three different weather widgets.
Digital hygiene is something only a very small percentage of users follow, so such ad might as well work while surrounded by 5 other ads
Honestly it could be that developing and maintaining these region-locked differences in OS might be more expensive than saving every last penny from not allowing piracy (which is the real deal for this fuss).
Big majority of android users don't sideload either, most people are so technically illiterate they don't really grasp the idea of an App Store overall, it's just a place for them the get an Instagram button on a new device
No worries!☝️🤓 usually signifies a pick-me idiot who thinks they're the smartest in the room, it's usually used sarcastically to present a common but idiotic opinion. Emoji combination shows them at the moment of going "Uhm, akshually!!"
I've literally put "☝️🤓" in the end though... Can't get more sarcastic than that
Just vote with your dollar, unethical companies always lose market competition ☝️🤓
I think Matrix suffers from some issues with large communities, for instance Graphene OS has already had to abandon 2-3 of their main group chats due to same bug and last time I checked (2-3 months ago) there has even been talks of switching to Discord. That is, just in case, a community of some of the most diehard privacy nerds btw
My copied answer to other user in this thread:
I'm in US. My ISP Xfinity provides their own router and has decided their users are too stupid to use router settings so they purged port forwarding settings from the router firmware altogether. Now you have to use their mobile application which doesn't allow you to make port forwarding rules for a specific IP (because again, they think their user is an idiot that can't figure out IP numbers), instead it just gives you a list of devices and you have to select one to create a port forwarding rule. Wired devices are not on that list.

I also feel their number grew in the last year. I've recently tried using Mull again (mobile firefox privacy-focused fork) after using Bromite for a year, and it was so unbearable I had to switch back. I'd say I had less websites that worked than ones that did not
Ah yes can't wait to switch keyboard layout mid-command every time, so nice!
I really hope this will just replace the update dialogue, not add another one on top of it. Manually tapping "update" for all Fdroid apps is a huge slog already
