Has anybody received this notification this morning?
I assume its from Dessalines or Nutomic, since it came alongside the update.
Here are two of the links:
So, what does this mean for aussie.zone?
Does this mean we all need to get a Fairphone with e/os, or another non-android handset? What are the options for that?
Does this mean aussie.zone will break with the lemmy developers and become more independent? A kind of forced Fork?
Just wanting to get peoples opinions.
Well i suppose another option would be to log in via the phones browser.
I imagine most people accessing lemmy are using an app for the convenience. Is it likely other app developers will be happy to comply with these rules?
Kinda hope i don't have to give up Jerboa, its a good app.
Yeah, i think my imagination just got a bit ahead of the issue this morning. I'm laying the blame on the screamin kids in the kitchen :p
I think almacca@aussie.zone reset my expectations for what this could mean pretty quick. Maybe it wasn't worth the post.
Might hinder fediverse growth if lemmy app developers en masse don't agree tobthe new terms though. But i suppose thats about it.
Yeah sorry, its Jerboa. I've got sync as well, and yet I still forget dessalines and nutomic aren't the only app developers. Never mind me! π€¦
Thats cool about the mobile site. Never considered using that till now. Might give it a try.
Ecosia browser might be a good one, they're going full european soon as well. Bit of a cherry on top.
Guess when I return to android Iβm not going to be able to use apps :(
Or I wade into the waters of Linux based phones with the higher stakes of it being my main device, so Iβll be forced to adapt and deal with any tricky problems under time pressure or I wonβt be able to use it. Iβm not the most technological person.
I donβt really use apps except my banking app but am increasingly being pressured to for things like maps, and the way things are going may eventually be forced to.
This is really dumb by the way. Or just a naked data grab. You can verify for OS or apps all you want but at such a general level without even having a profile or requiring any impersonation thereβs nothing to stop someone else from simply using the phone. Parents do actually keep their child occupied by handing them their own phoneβ¦ Passkeys may help but can be given for that purpose or guessed. All of this would be better handled by using parental controls.
But Google just has to be evil.
Edit: I donβt currently use any apps to access Lemmy but it probably improves the experience
There are people here still using googled android?

I don't have the cash to be upgrading my phone very often, although funds are probably going to have to shifted around soon for it. I haven't looked at Graphene OS, everybody talks about it like it is what Google android was meant to be.
Can it be installed on any handset? I ask because I've seen a lot of comments connecting it to the google pixel. Is that the only handset its compatible with?
Yes at present it is only pixel devices 6 and up that Graphene will run on.
There will be a Motorola device coming that will ship with graphene. Last I checked it's a long way off still.
Oh, i'll have to look more into that motorola. Not a brand you hear much from these days.

I don't think it's about aussie.zone, but rather the app you're using to browse it. I got the same message today when I opened Jerboa.
