    I stopped using Termux in general because of this inanity where they moved off and stopped supporting the Play Store Version; now this happens where they’re unable to keep things from conflicting across the different APK sources?

    Yikes. Seems like a good time to continue staying away from Termux and not recommending it.

    It’s a shame since I really love the concept of the app; but each increment of Android has been rough on it and I can’t imagine it being useful with Google being stupid about their policies.

    …Unfortunately they’re often quick to blame apps they dislike for problems in the ecosystem, and they often directly attack them through nerfing APIs and system calls that the apps tend to use; which I think is absolutely a dogshit thing to do.

    Please, stop enshittifying our phones Google.

      I feel like you’re being harsh. They lost access to the Play Store for a very long time and so could only update via F-Droid. Shit happens.

      This new one is abhorrent though. Catastrophic levels of fuck up. But it’s only one faux pas.
