I understand the developer, but the complete lack of communication with the community is appalling. and even the subsequent app updates to ad-supported/tracker-packed versions is just disgusting. i understand why tibbi burned out, but the sale process was handled in extremely poor way
Being burned out is no excuse to outright betray their users and principles. For the height of irony read this post by them from August…
“However, we want to assure you that you are not at risk of anything similar with our apps. Instead, we bet on transparency and a fair approach to users … It is a small one-time fee that will ensure you use our apps forever – with no ads and no access to your data” 😂😐
The good thing is that unlike the old QuickPic fiasco, here the apps are GPLv3, so these are 100% gonna be forked, still gonna see if i don’t keep all the eggs on a single basket
Edit: Until you have alternatives (either forks of these or alternatives), turn off automatic updates for these on both Google Play and FDroid (although if you installed them from FDroid the Google updates should fail anywa because of the different signature)
A fork has already been created by the other developer - https://github.com/FossifyX
