  • You could contact a larger contractor. Going as a subcontractor to a larger contractor means that you get access to their sales department and you can utilize them to build a name for yourself. The downside is, of course, that they take some of the earnings.

  • Clickbaity headline to scare you for no reason with an easily detectable behavior. If a white box suddenly appears on top of all my other apps I would get really suspicious and start to uninstall apps until it went away.

    That says, I do agree with the conclusion that granting permission to draw over other apps is dangerous.

  • If the signature matches, Google probably won't care where they are installed from. I suspect that the KDE Connect in fdroid is signed with a different certificate than on google play, causing it to be flagged as an impostor. This could probably be easily prevented by using the same cert or different app identifiers (to cause them to be treated as different apps).

  • Then this is a KDE Connect issue. If they sign with different keys, they should use different app names (in the manifest, the visible name could still be the same). If two apps have the same identifier but are signed with different certs, Google is right to treat one of them as an impostor.

  • In the beginning, the mouse did not have a wheel. The only way to move the view was by dragging the scrollbar with the mouse pointer. So when we got mouse wheels, it was easy to just connect the wheel to the scrollbar. And thus the traditional direction makes sense since you are moving the scrollbar, not the view. With time, the scrollbars became more and more hidden, and we got a disconnect between what we were scrolling (the almost hidden scrollbar) and what we thought we were scrolling (the view). When you think of it as manipulating the view directly, the natural scroll makes sense. Because that is what we do in touch devices (manipulate the view directly).

    That said, I use traditional scrolling because it's what I am used to.
