There needs to be a collection of devs supporting this, or promising to remove their apps from google play if this passes. I’d be one of them, but I don’t see any group / collection of devs doing this yet.

Get syncthing, which works on every platform, and syncs folders.
Keep all your files in markdown, and use any markdown editor for desktop or mobile you like. Markor or Obsidian(not open source unfortunately) for android are good ones.

5·8 months agoSame. The main thing I’ve been liking about it for the slower compiling languages that I mainly work in (rust, android jetpack compose), is that it leaves the
buildortargetdirectories in place. So instead ofgit checkout && clean_build_dir, and having to wait to recompile, I can justcdto that dir.

3·8 months agoNo need for another full git history copy, nor submodules and settings.
I also use this, but I think OP wants a kde app or applet of some kind.

Android@lemmy.ml•Enable Firefox's revamped tablet interface on Android
1·2 years agoI use termux to mosh/ssh to my arch linux dev server, and code from the command line using helix.
When I do android programming, since google forces you to use android-studio, I use AVNC on android, and tigervnc on my server. I hate this and I develop much slower than I would with helix / vim.

7·2 years agoThis is completely false. jgrim has never opened up a single issue or PR in lemmy, and we certainly wouldn’t refuse any of either. These things are easily verifiable by anyone who wants to look, its all out in the open.

Android@lemmy.ml•Enable Firefox's revamped tablet interface on Android
5·2 years agoYup, especially since tabs were an original mozilla invention, and android is by far the most popular OS in the world.

71·2 years agoAndroid tablets are booming rn. I’ve coded lemmy with one for several years now.
There’s nothing preventing him selling the app or a premium version, while still open sourcing it. Free as in freedom, not as in beer. Open source makes no demands or says anything about how you choose to monetize.
Someone releasing a fork nowadays seems even more difficult than downloading an unlocked apk anyway. If they want your app for free, they’ll get it.
There are some ideas for it, and a PR which puts some of them out there, but not anytime soon.
It’s also on f-droid, which does their own builds, and you could also compare the build with one you do on your own machine. So no, you don’t have to trust me.
A trustworthy person doesn’t require you to trust them; they don’t keep secrets from you, and are an open book. Beware anyone asking you to “just trust them”, which is what the authors of all closed source software demand of you.
Be aware that this is a closed source app, and since lemmy doesn’t currently have proper oauth, that it could potentially be storing your login creds. Be very wary of any lemmy app that isn’t open source.

Technology@beehaw.org•what would Reddit need to do to get you to go back
1·3 years agoUse the report button if you see any of that too, we will not tolerate it here.
Reddit thrives off of letting homophobes and transpbobes ruin everyone’s day, because it drives up their engagement numbers. We aren’t going to allow that here.

1·3 years agoYep this is a cool idea, at least in the short term.
I highly recommend going with a casio f-91W or one of its variants, like the metal band one.

Extremely light, cheap, reliable, 10+ year battery life, works underwater, and it doesn’t spy on you.







Either that, or for chinese android OEMs to just refuse this. I have a Xiaomi android tablet where google play is entirely optional, and it doesn’t require any developer verification, and I greatly doubt they’d let google refuse to let them use their own app stores.
I made an issue on the keepandroidopen repo about a "remove my app from google play pledge at least.
