Comment on Android won't kill sideloading after all, but new verification rules will make it harder
Fiery@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks agoAt least with something like shizuku one can effectively adb to your own phone, so even if adb became required to install non-google-approved apps on one’s own phone… It will not block FOSS for long.

and how do you enable shizuku? you need a PC for that too
Fiery@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 weeks ago
You do not, it can connect with your own wireless debugging session. shizuku.rikka.app/guide/setup/#start-via-wireless… Works since android 11

Couldn’t they just refuse to sign shizuku and you’d be stuck in a recursive loop of needing a pc anyways?

Actually even if they do sign it you’d need to run adb once for the first install of fdroid/shizuku
