  • Oh No! This is terrible news. This IMHO is one of the most irreplaceable projects out there. I don’t know of another cross-platform local file syncing app that comes anywhere close to this. I hope that it can continue even if it’s not through the Play Store.

    Google seems to be torpedoing open source developments with a number of decisions lately. Maybe they see F-Droid as a threat now that EU is making them open competition? Maybe they just don’t care.



  • If you need something more universal, you should try a file share service with linking like Dropbox. I know it’s not ideal to replace Google with another paid service, but it is the other option.

    Either both people have to have the same app to exchange the file (which if you want something common, means Google, Apple, Samsung, etc), or both people access a server to share large files.

    Proton offers file sharing, too.
