The Play Store has started notifying app updates for apps installed with F-Droid, and as expected, they cannot be updated. However, the Play Store still shows those failed updates. Does anyone know why this might be happening? #android#fdroid#playstore#update
@amadeus Für die wenigen Apps, die ich nicht über F-Droid bekomme sondern nur über Google, nutze ich den Aurora Store. Hier kann ich selbst entscheiden welche Apps ich updaten möchte. Den Google Playstore habe nicht auf meinem Smartphone installiert. https://f-droid.org/packages/com.aurora.store/
Since I've been using de-googled custom ROMs for years now, I don't know if the Play Store app allows blacklisting apps for updates.
But that's what I usually do in the Aurora store when there's an overlap with F-Droid :)
Yeah I've always checked the custom ROM situation before buying a phone. In the future I will just buy used Pixel phones and run GrapheneOS on them, super polished de-googled experience (and can run Google services in sandboxed mode if necessary) :)
Or PinePhones at some point.
@graves501 I know! 🫣️ I was just totally hypnotized with the Gigaset back then. Reasonably priced, more or less #green and #fair, with #dualsim, #replaceable#battery and even a #headphonejack. It just ticked all my boxes back then. And I think I plain forgot to think about the operating system for a moment and now "I have the salad". 😜️ But, ไม่เป็นไร (it's ok). 🤓️ My next phone will have to be a #linuxphone though. I'll just hold out till then, I guess. 😝️
