Stop spreading this nonsense. He made ONE comment that made it clear he is not accepting contributions for political reason from people not part of the project.

The “freakout” was entirely external.

Haha yes, I was making a joke, it’s still my main phone tho.

I like the 4a a lot, so I am not gonna replace it. It works like a charm, still!

Pixel 4a, still waiting…

Man now I want one as well, so one you imagined. :)

Wow nice, still using a Pixel 4a as my daily driver!

*edit: meh, my 4a is not eligible

Did you actually read the article?

They are cracking down on accounts that don’t label themself correctly as parody accounts, so they don’t impersonate someone.

Man I wish people wouldn’t just read headlines and start tying.

Why are garbage post like this upvoted?

The title has nothing todo with what is actually said in the linked article.

Can we please have some better moderation in this sub.

Appreciate it!

Oh damn, I use it every day on multiple devices. I need this app. :/

Lets hope syncthing-Fork, which I use continues.

Thanks Satan

Exactly!

I am in the same boat right now. I still use a Pixel 4a. It’s a great device, has exactly the size and performance I need, perfect condition but I don’t get updates anymore. It’s insane that in a time where resources get a real problem this is still allowed. If they can’t support it at least force them to open source the software/drivers or something.

Yeah my exact thoughts. Repairable phones are mostly useless if the vendor blobs don’t get updated anymore after x years. Until we have an open ecosystem, as we have on desktop PCs, repairable phones are only good on paper.

They get most of their money from google for the “default search engine deal” make of that what you want. For me personally it doesn’t sound fully independent.
