Blocks ads and performs better (at lest for me).

There will always be a way.

Cmon man, Its supposed to be a game, you dont want to hurt them for reals

Crap...
Thanks for the heads up. Do you have an alternative you would recommend?

FileCR is my go to

Edit: Nevermind

AFAIK xapk is not proprietary to APKpure and its safe. Its just a way to ease the installation of packages that require additional data (OBB) not contained in the apk to run. If you installed the same app from APKMirror (as an plain apk) you would need to then hunt for the obb files and "install" them manually for it to run. Packages that dont require this additional data are distributed as plain apk's in APKpure, its only those that do that come in xapk format.

As for the sketchy installers, I've seen a couple of them and they suck, I agree. Fortunatelly I discovered the other day that an app called ZArchiver (a file browser developed mainly to manage compressed files) can install xapk's without problem, its a quite competent file browser and its free, without ads.

Now if you still dont trust them you can try with the sites listed in FMHY

Edit: Just remembered a site called apk.support They too use xapk but they also offer downloads as zip files containig both apk and data or the option to download them separately directly from google servers. I've used it a couple of times without issues.

Where did you get that the phones were illegally imported?

Its not illegal.
This is about manufacturers not wanting to loose their control on distribution and price setting.

I think Robert Higgs explained it best:

"The whole Good Cop / Bad Cop question can be disposed of much more decisively. We need not enumerate what proportion of cops appears to be good or listen to someone's anecdote about his uncle Charlie, an allegedly good cop.
We need only consider the following:

• A cop's job is to enforce the laws, all of them;
• Many of the laws are manifestly unjust, and some are even cruel and wicked;
• Therefore every cop has to agree to act as an enforcer for laws that are manifestly unjust or even cruel and wicked.

There are no good cops."

Did he specified on what planet?

erode public faith in the integrity of democratic elections worldwide.

And I thought it was corrupt and criminal politicians running a farcical democracy that did it... When in doubt, blame russia I guess.

Its not just "ancestral guilt". Like I said : "they have kept the loot and are still profiting from it", And by loot I dont mean only valuable goods but power too. They still benefit from the power imbalance between countries that was created during colonialism. Just look at the world economy and the dynamic between the "economic south" and "economic north"

They are not guilty of colonialism "per se" but they are guilty of perpetuating, and using, the inequality and oppression that colonialism was built on for their own benefit.

In what way were they, the current Dutch king and queen, involved?

Their inheritance is comprised of stolen riches. Their whole socioeconomic status is a result of the crimes of their ancestors. They didnt commit the crime but they have kept the loot and are still profiting from it.

Maybe peertube? Its a decentralized and federated video plataform

Implying biden/democrats arent fascists. They are just less agressive.

Its a bug in Fenix 117 and 118. Either downgrade to 116 and wait for a new update or use nightly 119.

Agreed. Although, I do not believe its the voters/citizens fault. Indoctrination and propaganda are powerfull tools of the state.

You have to organize

What do you think I'm advocating for here?

Hard to organize shit when people is arguing against spreading the idea of doing so.

Homelessness is manufactured, its part of that coercion I talked about, so... yes.

Theres plenty of employed people who are homeless (quick google search shows that in the US about 50% of people living in shelters and 40% living on the streets are employed). Employment does not guarantee shelter, as we've been told, so clearly playing by their rules isnt working for us. Why do we keep playing a game that is rigged against us and supported by lies is beyond me.

Obviously all this should be accompained with solidarity/mutual aid and real societies and not the individualist bullshit they try so hard to convince us is society. Governments and corporations wont help us but theres no reason we cant help each other if we wanted to.

...organized rebelion...

What do you think I'm advocating for here? Demanding your rightfull place as a worker is rebellion.
Sure, one dignified chump quitting will be laughed at; but one thousand? ten thousand? will make them sweat.
