You know things are bad when your search for a CSV viewer looks like the back of a CVS receipt.

isn't aurora store broken though

Droid-ify is my preferred F-Droid app since it can pair with Shizuku for easier rootless updating.

90% of that page is revenue generation, they'd be happy to increase that number! You only need a few pixels to see what you actually want to do.

Money

They look at their fat paychecks + golden parachutes and say: Yes! That’s exactly what I was looking for!

You don't... You don't think any exec cares about user experience, do you? Well, they do, but only to the extent that everything they do is just below our threshold for leaving in outrage.

They use an iPhone

they don't care, as long as the users are captured and unable to switch to something else. and unlike with iOS, they have the figleaf of side-loading to protect themselves, even though 90% of users won't pursue it. so pressure from the EU will be minimal even as the user experience continues to degrade

Me too. The exact same app. I rarely open the play store with other app stores existing but good lord this is bad.

iOS is bad when it comes to trying to find apps that aren't trying to shove subscription plans. They seem to push it like youtubers begging you to like and subscribe. No 'Contains ads' notice either, so it was the first time I discovered that talking video ads exist.

Yeah precisely what I went through also, I have f-droid, Aurora store, even obtainium for those apps you usually get updates directly on their GitHub pages, going back to the Playstore has been a eye opener.

Might be, I have reduced the number of ad columns by one, with this latest screenshot. Not getting the same result as you. Then again, that could be because my android version is older and such.
