@mondstern It would be best to link to @IzzyOnDroidOrg as that's the official IzzyOnDroid project account, @IzzyOnDroid is Izzy's personal account

@mondstern for the repo, I guess it's time now to refer to @IzzyOnDroidOrg – "my baby" has grown, and I as its "parent" now can proudly watch its adult steps. The project will turn 10 in a month (first code commit). At that age, children are not constantly accompanied by their parents anymore

I, as proud "father", hope the project will survive me, should I one day be no longer able to maintain it. But I also hope that day won't come too soon 🤪

@ariarhythmic depends. Please check our inclusion policy, last item in this section: https://izzyondroid.org/docs/general/AppInclusionPolicy/#are-there-any-app-categories-which-are-not-acceptable-to-this-repo
"… we do not accept apps supporting companies making profit based on other people's work obtained without or even against their consent. This includes e.g. apps for accessing most of the big so-called „AI“ platforms, having consumed large amounts of copyrighted work to be built – without compensation for, or even just consent by the respective creators."

@IzzyOnDroidOrg Thank you! This is much better than official F-Droid's "freedom of speech"-like stance.

@IzzyOnDroidOrg @IzzyOnDroid what happens when Google does not allow anymore your apps on Android phones? (2026/2027)

@Thales_Curiosities @IzzyOnDroidOrg @IzzyOnDroid We are watching Google's plans and actions closely. Currently, a lot is still unclear.
Yes, these changes are worrying and Google may very well kill alternative app stores with this on most devices if they keep going the way they are but even if they do we will stick around to support degoogled devices and will keep fighting to be accessible as much as possible.
We hope people keep the pressure up by writing authorities: https://keepandroidopen.org/

@SylvieLorxu @Thales_Curiosities @IzzyOnDroidOrg @IzzyOnDroid I have a question: devices without Google for devices with custom ROMs or devices with ADB removing Google from the Android system?

@iguana09863 @Thales_Curiosities @IzzyOnDroidOrg @IzzyOnDroid All devices we can keep supporting. As I said, a lot is still unclear, which sadly includes how exactly Google will be enforcing this and what workarounds may or may not be possible. There's some speculation but nothing confirmed yet.
