$349 for something I can get with Android 13 on Amazon for $60. Hmm.

Thereby surrendering your anonymity and negating any reason to use the app over mainstream alternatives.

Simple answer to the question so far as I can see: in order to connect with someone, you have to video conference with them and show them a code. So the anonymity is only as anonymous as the video conference you use to do that. All of the benefits it claims are merely an illusion.

This is the best one. There's an in-app purchase to remove ads. You're just playing yourself for high score. Great time-waster.

Instagram Lite is an okay alternative to the bigger, main client and since it's official, it won't get you banned. It's not available in most markets, but sideloading from APKMirror works very well.

.57 has completely borked swipe gestures. Swiping left upvotes, right bookmarks. There's nothing in the settings that I can see to fix this.

Firefox on Android has supported the normal add-ons since December. The list is at 678 extensions as I'm typing this.

I'd be happy just to have an app that would let me create a metacommunity of my own (ie: showing me an "Android" community (folder) that I could stick android@lemmy.world, android@lemmy.ml, android@lemmy.ca, and android@whatever.else into).

Ultimately, there's some humour in how fixing this problem in 2024 was actually done 30 years ago when we had newsgroups. comp.technology.android would have solved all of this.
