For everyone still using Simple Tools apps, switch to Fossify it’s a fork that has all that crap removed
Guys.
Dont install FOSS apps from the Playstore. Use F-Droid (F-Droid Basic if you are on an updated OS)
Thanks.
I’m really curious about the amount of money exchanged. It must have been an enormous amount in order to do a “I’d even sell my mom for that” and don’t feel dirty
the developer, and this isnt exaggeration, does not understand gpl v3. he literally got confused when people told him he had no right to sell contributed code. you can see for yourself in the github discussions
Throwback to when they announced releasing a simple phone. Fun times.
Wow, the new owners enshittified those apps really fast.
They were sold to ZippoApps, who specializes in adding crapware to apps.
What else would we expect anyway…
“have full network access” BIG YIKES
I’m just using the default GrapheneOS SMS app, but it’s concerning seeing the number of these FOSS apps lately adding major privacy invasive permission changes. Are there a few big companies buying them up for a quick buck, or what?
