Hey, did y'all see this?

I saw this when running newpipe. But wait, it gets deeper. I clicked on the details buttons and it said as of today, we have 83 days left until Google rolls out this new requirement for apps inside and outside of the google play store. If any developer disagrees with their new terms and fees, they will be blocked!

I'll share some of the info below:

Looks like they're trying to nuke the remaining privacy and freedoms we have left on the internet.

What to do?

-Get your developer friends to not comply to their new guides

- Sign the open letter on the site and take action by checking out the full resources list on their website as well!

To summarize, this is all daunting especially when you feel all alone with unfair and inhumane regulations comming out faster than improvements but we got this working together!

Share the link with your friends, family and anyone who will listen!

Your phone is about to stop being yours. In September 2026, Google will block every Android app whose developer hasn't registered with them.

If you're in the US, I created a petition to make it easier to contact senators and congressmen.

Join 1 people. Google is trying to make people hand over government id in order to make an Android app. If they don't, then that app can't b

If you're not in the US, see if your country is listed here for whom to contact.

really weird seeing posts on here about bullying by people who don't know how bullies work

cuunos

like a lot of people on this site have been bullied and so they think they Get How Bullying works. and it's all like "ohhh they wouldn't have bullied me if they knew i was autistic and depressed" and like. even if they somehow didn't assume that, im sure they wouldn't have been nicer to you.

cuunos

EXACTLY. they knew you were struggling with your mental health, they knew you were autistic, they knew you had anxiety, they KNEW. THEY KNEW.

cuunos

ALSO. "bullies want power and control, they only bully you because they want to feel better about their lives" actually sometimes they bully you because they want to hurt you for fun. by the way

cuunos

really good way to phrase it.

final thoughts for the night. a lot of bullying is done in passing and the bully doesn't usually think much of it. it goes something like: this person has a haircut that i think looks stupid -> "your haircut looks stupid" -> i have to get to math class. it's truly not like people usually go "i am a bully i am going to bully you" it's more along the lines of "you're a freak and im going to let you know because that's the truth and i want you to be embarrassed and hurt and then i'll move on with my day and forget you." the tree remembers but the axe didn't even think about it.

“knowing how to write effective AI prompts will be a valuable skill in the future” and what if I skip all that and write the email myself in under 30 seconds drawing from my very own biological database of language and rhetoric (my brain)?

having anxiety is like being given permanent unwanted custody of a halter arabian. like okay buddy is it panic time again. cool you probably need more exercise and an apple and then maybe you'll calm down.

thoroughly enjoying the notes on this post because it's equal parts people with anxiety going "yeah that's what it's like" and people with arabians going "yeah that's what they're like"
