Have you ever used upx on a windows machine, defender throws fits and deletes everything.

Google's gone full evil between this and all the YouTube ruining.

I've bought apps on Google Play where I've had to download the apk elsewhere because of restrictions like scoped storage making them almost unusable.

Neutron music players one example where they have to keep an apk on their own site to get round Google restrictions. as scoped storage is about 20 times slower not to mention a real hassle. PPSSPP is another example and probably a lot of emulators were folder access is kind of important.

I really suspect in future years it'll be revealed Nothing is a oneplus brand, I mean I know a lot of people already suspect it but yeah I d say Nothing is to One plus what Honor is to Huawei.

Yep every article you ever see about them is some type of gimmick or another and most of them last about as long as Nothing Messages did.

My Nothing is the most unstable Android device I've ever owned and they don't ever actually fix anything just come out with childish gimmicks.

I think the last one was Chat Gpt integration which turned out to just be a widget that launches chatgpt if you manually install it and even that only worked for a couple of weeks and chatgpts own widget is better so what was the point.
