I know this will get downvoted, but WTH :)

> Starting in 2027, a silent update, nonconsensually pushed by Google, will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with Google, signed their contract, paid up, and handed over government ID.

Android is owned by Google, so in all fairness they can do whatever they want, so they don't need anyone consent.

I am doing the same, such a great underrated feature that many people do not know of.

This is pretty much "problem" with every OS.

Windows - you make one setting change somewhere, you forget about it. Half year later boom.

Linux - you make one setting change somewhere, you forget about it. Half year later boom.

Agreed, I swapped to iPhone about 4 years ago, because I couldn't find a phone for myself from a tons of options(one company did that, another did something else, etc..).

iPhone is nice, but it has its quirks and stupidities. Android is nice, but has some other stuff I don't like.

I wish there would be a third option that would take the best of those two worlds.

It's not an easy task! I had mine account since gmail beta, so much stuff is going through it.

Two years ago I moved to Fastmail(they're great), and pretty much setting up an alias per site/purpose. While I'm happy to see that gmail receives less & less, I still have about 150 entries in 1password that say @gmail.com... maybe one day...

Not everybody has a possibility.

Each system has pros and cons.

I'm daily driving both Windows and Linux, and each has its own issues unfortunately, so using tools like OO is a necessity of making my(and others) life bit less miserable.

For Linux I have bunch of custom repair scripts because of certain bugs I encounter(which are tracked too but not solved).

Unfortunately this is the game no one will ever win, unless you will move, drop tech, and start breeding dogs, but then you need to sell them, and where would you advertise? :)

I really don't mind blowing my weekly usage in one day, but getting my tasks stopped and waiting for 5h cap to finish - is just annoying.

Oh yeah, I just gave it a go with big hopes, but it looks like it's not there.

Made some changes, nothing, made more changes, nothing... Then to my surprise I restarted software and they were there, mouse speed x100000, and other weird stuff I've put in - I thought I was doing something wrong when the changes weren't applied :D

That was pre-covid, and the guy stepped down. But I can see your point. My point is that they had time to re-think what happened.

That was my initial thought.
