Setting up an ad blocker for a whole device often requires root

Private DNS since Android 9 can do that without root access afaik, like with AdGuard's public service

Try to use apt on Android

With Termux one can

And no ads in every app.

Don't use apps with ads then? Or set up an ad blocker.

Root access, that is, being admim of your own device.

That's just how most Android versions are shipped. It's still technically possible to get root access, and really enjoy every privilege of Linux. Not all devices allow using a custom OS though, sadly

easier to warm up than cool down imo

some people need to grow up lol

I feel like most people would rather use shady, free VPNs instead. There'll probably be an increase in them too

It's a beta, duh.

i love apps which don't follow the XDG Base Directory spec 🥰🥰

yeah that nothing was really awesome and deep and inspiring!!

Clearly, you don't own an air fryer.

the punchline is porn how creative

chat is this real

Thank software patents for the codec trouble, not Fedora / Red Hat. They just don't want to get their asses sued for free software

Anyway I can use VLC and ffmpeg just fine with RPMFusion, idk what ur issue is, but judging by that

you are all wrong

i probably just wasted my time on a brainless troll like you.

Do you have any sources or docs on that? Sounds pretty backwards but also new to me. I pretty recently tried to download images (using Glide) without any special permissions and it failed since the app was missing the android.permission.INTERNET declaration (just like HeliBoard)

Any way/plans to make it an almost 1:1 Gboard replacement including layout and Material You styling support? I use FlorisBoard with Gboardish rn to achieve that, but it's got some issues like missing word suggestions

It doesn't even declare any network access permissions (and according to the README's policy, it won't in the future), so it couldn't even be a keylogger.

They have like 3 different, official codebases and clients (and so many 3rd party ones) for so many platforms. No other app I know of is like that, not really a great example imo

something for mr sausage holy shit

Man that rule is such bullcrap. Imagine a photo editor that only allowed you to edit your own pictures and only those matching the app's content rating.

Finally a study on this, nice. All those "no fucking shit" comments should be thankful someone actually proved this

😍😍😍
