there are more elegant solutions similar to yt-dlp. scdl is very user friendly and automatically embeds metadata.
see: Android's recent transformation into a closed platform which no longer allows users to control devices they purchase. it's important to fight against trends like this loudly and vehemently while we still can.
I hope that one day, in a distant future, humanity will experience an awakening and finally rise against the destructive traits we inherited from our long-gone ancestors.
Maybe bio-hacking will come to our help...but probably it will make everything worse first.

if FAANG apps and banking apps don't run on a mobile OS it will never be viable. the government, these big companies, and the device manufacturers all have a vested interest in making sure it never happens.
Edit: under what license did rebble scrape the app code? Couldn’t Core Devices scrape it from rebble under the same logic?
> We’ve built a totally new dev portal, where y’all submitted brand new apps that never existed while Pebble was around.
> We’ve patched hundreds of apps with Timeline and weather endpoint updates. We’ve curated removal requests from people who wanted to unpublish their apps. And it has new versions of old apps, and brand new apps from the two hackathons we’ve run!
it sounds like Rebble scraped the original store, built a new API and storage layer, facilitated the publishing of new apps, and kept old apps updated when external changes would've rendered them otherwise unusable. then tried to work with Eric to reach an agreement where both parties could have a piece of the pie in the relaunch.
my major state was one of deep relaxation ... MDMA does not work like Dexedrine ... I feel totally peaceful.

It's incredibly amusing to me reading some people's comments here critical of AI, that if you didn't know any better, might make you think that AI is a worthless technology.
They run simulations against N million personality models, accurately predicting the outcome of any news story/event/stimulus. They use this power to shape national and global events to their own ends. This is what privacy and digital sovereignty advocates have been warning the public about for over a decade, to no avail.
