I’ve been using linux since the late 90s. I’ve tried all major distributions. My gaming rig runs bazzite, and nothing else comes even close in out-of-the box experience.

Lol @ devices need breaks too. What an absolute nonsense.

Weird, works great for Polish.

Or you know, MP3s on DVD for the car.

Which part of simple,and without unnecessary permissions are you confused about?

It doesn’t change the fact that those permissions are necessary during install. Them saying “oh, don’t worry about that, it was a mistake” is laughable.

This wasn’t too paranoid for no reason, if you read what Fossify and their mission is about.

EDIT: spelling

You’re right, I should’ve worded it differently.

Anyone that installed/is using a Fossify app, that actually read about Fossify and their missions statement (and aligned with it), wouldn’t be the target user for features like this.

Right, and a gallery app has zero reason to need that info.

“however the ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE permission was left over by mistake, but any actual NETWORK calls are completely disabled.” Mistake huh? That’s assuring lol.

Any chance you asked about why they need to know what wifi networks are around and which ones I am connected to?

EDIT: Sorry, missed the link. You did ask that question, and they literally ignored it in their answer.

Doesn’t change a fact that someone that’s using Fossify Gallery, is not the target user for something that has a feature like this.

I don’t need to ask anything. OP posted a comparison, that really isn’t. I made a point of one big reason why. You came here with the unrelated info.

I don’t even see that permission listed. That being said, it’s a whole different permission than what I listed: “…information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected.” is different from requiring internet activity.

Comparing this app to Fossify Gallery is straight silly, because people that chose Fossify Gallery, chose it because it didn’t have all this unnecessary garbage.

If it has face recognition, than it’s a definite fuck no.

“view network connections Allows the app to view information about network connections such as which networks exist and are connected.”

That’s a hell no from me.

10s were the decade of signal. In the 20s, Matrix is the better choice.

I recommend heliboard.

I understand it’s early access, but not having an ability to rebind controls is criminal.

Except for those on degoogled android.
