Are you sure this is a new application?

What about the simplest and most understandable application for beginners, this is the PWA app Pinafore.

For those who have used third-party applications for Reddit, such as Infinity and Boost, Pinafore will be quite comfortable.

The last activity on the page was many months ago.
On their website page 404

And where can I find the compiled installation files?

I enabled traffic logging in the firewall After stopping all Internet applications, only Google framework services exchange traffic. This is probably the activity of system applications.

As for browser traffic, I don’t know which IPs may belong to advertising services.

I found some mention in the search engine:

“AppTornado with its product AppBrain provides an Android apps discovery, promotion and monetization platform to developers and users. It provides play store analytics in the means of rankings and statistics to developers and an optimization platform based on cost per install for their Android apps. It enables users to discover apps using the platform by providing personalized and daily app recommendations.”

i wrote above that I went to the Mastodon instance and there were no trackers there.

It’s strange.

For the purity of the experiment, I reinstalled the browser again and the first site I visited was a Mastodon instanse https://social.tchncs.de/
There are no trackers.

I went to the Lemmy.world website and the firewall also found this tracker.

Yes. I specifically downloaded the new jQuarks browser just now to make it easy to detect new trackers, and went to https://lemmy.today . Firewall shows tracker appbrain.com

I don’t use an mp3 player. It is inconvenient to carry two devices in your pocket at once. But phones tend to lack physical buttons to control music, and that’s inconvenient.

I remember the times of push-button phones and special models for music: nokia music, sony walkman.

When I read that someone is planning to open their code, I remember the news about the releases of the Sailfish operating system: “The operating system is partially open source, but the layer for running Android apps is proprietary. However, the code of this layer was planned to be made open in 2017”

Planning doesn’t mean doing.

Is it just me or is WireMin closed source?

In addition, the app contains Google tracker (This is what App Manager shows).

It’s not the first time I’ve seen this app recommended in Lemmy and I don’t understand why.

I think there are a lot of similar apps in Google Play.

Upd: I checked Damus. Contains 24 trackers. 😂

Maybe my idea is stupid, but what if ask for help? It may be possible to find programmers willing to help.

Isn’t there bad code in the free software world?

I remember the news when Dwango company decided to open source the Toonz program. On one of the forums I read a lot of criticism about the quality of their code.
But no one will deny that this is a useful program for artists, even if the program code is not very good.

Why not Lineage os or /e/ os?

I hungry! It looks quite appetizing compared to the pastries I made.

Good app. However, on non-rooted devices the use is a bit problematic. Need to select or activate a firewall or activate Vpn.

What can you say about the service nextdns.io?

I’m just wondering - are famous musicians good guys in real life?

Did you communicate with the musicians?

What does PA stand for?
