As someone who has used this app for at least 6 years, I am very sad to see this happen.
I’m surprised they weren’t able to get away with it after the change in extensions a couple versions ago. By not shipping extensions that have copyrighted content that should have been enough, similar to how emulators, services like Plex and torrenting applications survive.
It’s effectively just a comic / manga reader that can be used for piracy when the right extensions are added.
Apparently that wasn’t enough, and I can’t blame open source devs for not wanting to start a legal battle with a profit-earning company.
For now, the app does allow you to add external repository’s (list of extensions for various sources) that are still being updated, and I believe there are at least a few forks of the project that will survive for now.
All I can say is great work to the dev team for sticking with us until now and I wish you luck in your future ventures.
It’s literally just a link. They don’t send shit to Kayak unless you decide yourself to click that link. Yes, Kayak could track you. That’s true of most sites they could link to. They also advertise this fact pretty clearly. And as far as I can tell, didn’t they confirm it would be made opt-in?
For any client that does not support ListenBrainz but does support Last.FM you can use multi-scrobbler to chain off of it. github.com/FoxxMD/multi-scrobbler
I use helium314/openboard on day to day basis, but the few times I use termux or have to ssh a linux box from my phone, unexpected keyboard is really awesome.
