#AndroidAppRain at #FDroid with 23 updated and 3 added apps:

* Geekttrss: Tiny Tiny RSS reader with transparent offline mode
* Ching Machine: Automatic "ching" for Thai music
* StarGW Weight: simple app to record your weight

Plus: The latest version (1.17) of the F-Droid client was marked recommended. It will finally show you details on why a given #AntiFeature was applied, for many apps (and for more apps with the next index update).

Enjoy your #foss #android #apps with #FDroid :awesome:

@Nika2022 @cashir @elala @amadeuantonio Ja, also #Einzelartikel-Kauf sollten die auch ermöglichen - so wie bei @heiseonline ...

Ansonsten ist #Abozwang eine #Inconvenience und #AntiFeature weil unattraktiver als #Print!

My wife and me wanted to swap the ownership of a #Chipolo One tag (i.e., who adds the tag first to their app). First me as a non-owner removed it from my app, then her from her app. Trying to add the tag again ("pairing" as it's called in the app) failed on both of our phones as the tag was locked on the Chipolo server after the removal. Why, oh why is it locked? Now we are at the mercy of Chipolo customer support to unlock it for us. What an #AntiFeature.

Puh, jetzt hatte ich aber die Luft angehalten. Aber offenbar ist zum Glück auch FreeOTP+ nicht von dem "nicht änderbares Passwort"-#Antifeature betroffen. 😵‍💫🤗

- Tweet like it's 2012.
- Be a decent human being.
- make #TransRightsAreHumanRights trending.
- Explain to #Journalists that #QRTs are an #AntiFeature.
- Find #mutuals like #FoWL was intended to do.
- Use it like a #based #IRC...

Y'know.
These things...

@enobacon Copy paste and/or reply. Makes us more #mindful. #slowmode thinking.

And helps minimize info overload. And reduces the amount of "taking out of context", reacting. Some conversation designers and game theorists and mechanism/system/community design people (including @Eugen, I think) see the quote-toot button as an #antifeature

^^^ this is a serious #antiFeature/(#)darkPattern we predicted and, lo-and-behold what do we find…

Whenever you connect/disconnect your Bluetooth headphones, Apple grabs the opportunity to remind you that they sold you a computer with their preferences locked in, which you as a "user" cannot change. (You think you're the owner, not just a user? You gotta be kidding yourself.)

How do I stop the Music app from opening automatically?

@IzzyOnDroid
One thing that we noticed is that the wiki page that is meant to show which apps share the #UpstreamNonFree #antiFeature, appear to lack some apps, namely that org.mozilla.fennec_fdroid one.

If the website is generated automatically, but the wiki isn't, then moving that page off the wiki might be helpful.
