Google, where’s the catch?
Google Ends Its 30% App Store Fee, Welcomes Third-Party App Stores

Someone comments "Please don't legislate me as a monopoly!", others point out that the developer "only" needs to register on Google to be able to run anything on Android.

I was wondering if this could be turned into an opportunity to finance the development of free-as-in-freedom software.

@aeva Knowing techbros and Polymarket, they'd bet and intentionally fuck it up, on the particular day they all plan to cash out.

I fear you can make something extremely bad and also keep it running and even add features if you don't actually care how anything comes out/whether the things you put in do what you actually intend them to do/whether it's safe or easy to use.

i wonder if there's a betting pool for how long bs can keep going before the slop coders total it
