That’s cool. Now, when something like that comes to fdroid, I will be using it. Fuck google
im not so sure about fdroid long term
I’ve been leaning more and more towards using fdroid just to find apps and then using Obtainium to install them directly from source.
Same. I’m using Obtanium anyway for things that are github-only, no real need to have the clunky fdroid client installed as well.
Hell, it’s the only App Store I will even touch.
Not saying its worse but I recall seeing an article about some change in policy with it but honestly I can’t find it now. Maybe it was fud.
I think I remember something about that, but I didn’t pay much attention to it at the time. I feel like whatever it was, it was rather recent, though.
way to built up a cliff hanger
why?
did you read the other replies? nothing much but a bit back there was some article about changes in terms of paid for stuff. I can’t find it now though so not sure how real it was.
im not against paid for stuff per se
yeah I don’t really have enough details to be sure but like everything I like to have a backup plan.
Wow, amazing, so convenient Google… Now return the search to main screen; dickheads!
Not sure if its an an test that I’m in, but search is now its own tab on the bottom available from all screens.
Yeah, and it’s stupid, just added unnecessary click for no gain.
What’s the point? Updating four apps four times as slowly simultaneously is the same as updating four apps at four times the speed consecutively, and you would have the same internet speed either way.
In my experience (not in Android apps but in Arch Linux updates) parallel downloads are almost always waaay faster. Magnitudes faster. Using multiple cores? Is it the bottleneck actually enforced by the server? I don’t know, I just know it works.
And if they did it, it’s because it works on Android too.
I can update infinite packages at the same time in pacman tho 😎
Mine only seems to do 3 at a time.
That’s the limit
Do I have to decline providing a method of payment 4 times for free apps, or just the once?
HOLY FUCK THIS IS AMAZING!
Tap for spoiler
I’ll never use this. Who the fuck does need this? I download a new app maybe once every 6 months.
For updates? It works for updates too. I hope you’re updating apps more than every 6 months for security reasons.
