Can all Android users access the F-Droid store easily or just jail broken phones? I've had it with the app submission process on PlaySstore. I'm making niche apps. I don't care about hypothetically "hitting it big". Fuck em if FDroid is possible for motivated users. #rant #android #google #fdroid

#Chrome Lets #Google Websites #Access Your #System #CPU & #GPU Usage

Recently, software developer #LucaCasonato found out that Chrome gives all Google websites full access to system/tab CPU, GPU, and memory usage as well as detailed processor information and logging backchannel. "This is interesting because it is a clear violation of the idea that #browser vendors should not give preference to their websites over anyone else's," he said on X/Twitter. "Depending on how you interpret the DMA, this additional exposure of information only to Google properties may be considered a #violation of the #DMA."
