I am using GrapheneOS. GrapheneOS has a compatibility layer providing the option to install and use the official releases of Google Play in the standard app sandbox.

See https://grapheneos.org/features#sandboxed-google-play

NetGuard also shows network requests from GrapheneOS itself, all proxied by the GrapheneOS project, as described here: https://grapheneos.org/faq#default-connections

Not sure anymore since I removed them, it may have been BlaBlaCar and/or Tricount.

I am dreaming of an open-source app that adds Wireguard capabilities to NetGuard or vice-versa.

Having to switch from one to the other is very annoying.

Installing NetGuard was revelation regarding the amount of tracking in most Android apps.

You can configure it to block access by default and notify you every time an app attempts a new connection. And it rings all the time.

Some software call home at 4am every day, other every hour, some send data to a dozen "analytics" services - services that I never opted-in for, which shows how few apps respect the RGPD.

At least most apps still work when those are blocked, and NetGuard allows you to block connections to Google servers except for Google Apps, which network firewalls and DNS solutions can't.

F-Droid only packages open-source software and rebuilds it from source, while installing from Accrescent would move all trust to the developer, even if the license changes to proprietary.

I understand that the author trusts itself more than F-Droid, but as a user the opposite seems more relevant.

They should reword it as "That’s the average time it takes a broken automatic upgrade to land and deploy through your network. When your data, reputation, and revenue are at stake, don't trust third-party software with automated updates."

Finally a voice recognition keyboard that works well on Android and offline! I just tested it and the quality in English at least is great.

Too bad that the license is not open-source, I prefer donating to projects that are open-source even if asking for a fee to use (ex: Netguard, MyExpenses).

Does anyone else feel uneasy about the idea of children having to curb their behavior because they know they're being constantly monitored by their parents?

This product concerns me not only due to corporate advertising surveillance but also parental spying.

You may be interested in the type matching provided by Pydantic. It is a handy way to avoid writing `match-case` expressions.

``` >>> from pydantic import BaseModel >>> from typing import Literal, List

>>> class Chicken(BaseModel): ... n_legs: Literal[2]

>>> class Cat(BaseModel): ... n_legs: Literal[4]

>>> class Farm(BaseModel): ... animals: List[Chicken | Cat]

>>> Farm.model_validate(dict(animals=[{'n_legs': 2}, {'n_legs': 4}])) Farm(animals=[Chicken(n_legs=2), Cat(n_legs=4)]) ```

Apple keeps a strong control nevertheless, as detailed in the page "Getting ready for Web Distribution in the EU."

> Apps offered through Web Distribution must meet Notarization requirements to protect platform integrity, like all iOS apps, and can only be installed from a website domain that the developer has registered in App Store Connect.

Further, the conditions for eligibility seem to block access to new startups and indie developers.

> To be eligible for Web Distribution, you must: (...) Be a member of good standing in the Apple Developer Program for two continuous years or more, and have an app that had more than one million first annual installs on iOS in the EU in the prior calendar year.

I see source code for clients, but nothing for the server side.

Are they using something standard or do they want to lock-down users to their own proprietary servers ?
