Google is now marking EVERY SINGLE APK at our repository as "Malware site issue".

@IzzyOnDroid It's done for me, I got a confirmation of receipt OK
@sousse Thanks! Let's hope we're shaking something loose there – and that it's just a quirk at their end, which they quickly fix, removing those unwarranted blocks and red pages.
I doubt they'll ever apologize for the mess they caused there. Wish they'd surprise me positively once. Like, "as reparation, we've filled your OpenCollective with a (6+ digit) sum" (that would even come out of their "petty cash")… Well, one can dream, right? *Sigh…*

Google is now marking EVERY SINGLE APK at our repository as "Malware site issue". Congrats, "Safe" browsing.
Of course there is not a single malware there, everything is scanned multiple times. And I bet they excluded *.google.com from their scan or the entire PlayStore would be red by now, too…
Calling out to all of you: Please use https://safebrowsing.google.com/safebrowsing/report_error/ to report the links as "safe"!
https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/repo/com.apkupdater_52.apk is the one console reports.
@IzzyOnDroid even firefox for android is blocking it

@loebas Yes, on Android every major browser, as far as I know. Not sure if you can even turn it off there. So much about being in control of the device you "own". And so much about being considered mature enough to make your own decisions…

@AmonTheMetalHead Thanks! May I ask if you're speaking of a mobile browser there – and if so, which, and where you disabled that? Could be worth mentioning that as (at least temporary) work-around in the future.

@IzzyOnDroid I disabled it on Firefox (desktop) I almost never use my phone to check mastodon, the setting was called Deceptive Content and Dangerous Software Protection
