would handle hardware-accelerated rendering. Then some webcams or controllers won’t be accessible though. This one’s a bit complicated, since the necessary portals for e.g. generic USB device access aren’t yet there.
To 2.: portals should be used instead of that. Using them doesn’t require these permissions.
To 3.: click on details and see. This is Flathub making it easy to understand for users.
Permissions should make clear whatever dangerous things an app can do. If not, why do all this effort of isolation? Firefox could delete everything in downloads, either by accident on Mozilla’s side, or a privilege escalation. If the app used portals instead, it couldn’t, at least without user interaction. Or a browser security vulnerability could open up any USB devices to webpages. It’s all about what could happen with granted permissions. And these can 100 % be fixed in at least some way.
Apps could start improving to remove the warnings…
Well you do you. I don’t see the point in hating open source software made by them, you’re not paying them unlike with regular products and boycotting them.
You’re complaining about corporate fundings. Without them, a lot of open source tech would definitely not be as advanced as it is today. Since everything’s open source, anyone can just fork a project when some “malicious megacorp” “hijacks” the project. Funny how a similar case happened “the good way” recently with Redis/Valkey, but the other way around.
There’s always some doomers only seeing potential bad futures in awesome stuff, huh?

There’s an in-development program for GNOME called Valent. It’s been pretty solid for me. It’s also not a GNOME shell extension, instead a native app.
not always :(
Doesn’t ReVanced work?
This measure is not linked with specific individuals and is further anonymized using a technology called OHTTP to ensure it can’t be connected with user IP addresses.

You can just opt out of data collection and that new search “feature” will be off too.
I feel like most people would rather use shady, free VPNs instead. There’ll probably be an increase in them too
Do you have any sources or docs on that? Sounds pretty backwards but also new to me. I pretty recently tried to download images (using Glide) without any special permissions and it failed since the app was missing the android.permission.INTERNET
declaration (just like HeliBoard)
Any way/plans to make it an almost 1:1 Gboard replacement including layout and Material You styling support? I use FlorisBoard with Gboardish rn to achieve that, but it’s got some issues like missing word suggestions
It doesn’t even declare any network access permissions (and according to the README’s policy, it won’t in the future), so it couldn’t even be a keylogger.
Fuck Google’s recent changes to the quick settings panel, really. Especially now that One UI 6 didn’t revert those changes like it was done with One UI 5.
So is it pretty much an unofficial Spin then?
