Hahahaha I’ve been through the same process! And I’m still learning, it ain’t just you man
- Comment on Why would I buy this? 5 weeks ago:
Yeah it was a joke man. CoD is exactly as you described but it’s irrelevant to the people playing it.
Sports fans go and watch the same team play similar games dozens of times over many many seasons. That’s what CoD is to its fans (FIFA, NFL, etc., similarly).
Both are not for me, but I get why other people like it.

Leave it in a steam review bruh
- Comment on Why would I buy this? 5 weeks ago:
It’s CoD. You’re asking why people drink coke if you don’t like coke.
Also, steam FPS reviews are full of people on full tilt. Use better review sources.

I’m using Boost, so I’ve been using tagging a lot. It’s useful to remind yourself whether someone routinely behaves in a way I don’t want to interact with.
I’ve probably untagged more people than I’ve blocked at this point. People are complicated, moods change with the weather.
Also helped me to correlate that the majority of my tags were on ml users. I’ve filtered that instance and, can’t lie, using Lemmy is much nicer now.

- Comment on Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration 1 month ago:
Yes you’re right. If they knew, it would likely come with the knowledge that, if someone asks you to do this, you’re probably being scammed.
That’s what makes them most vulnerable to these kinds of scams.
- Comment on Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration 1 month ago:
Most people don’t know what a bootloader is. They still turn their devices on and off every day.
This whole conversation is about adding obstacles to prevent non technical users from doing things they don’t fully understand.
- Comment on Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration 1 month ago:
No, the certificate can be invalidated preventing future installations for other users. If you already have it you’re SOOL
- Comment on Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration 1 month ago:
Because it can be invalidated. That’s the difference.
It’s absolutely not foolproof, but nothing is. Most actions corps take for this stuff only slows down the spread. Hackers and bad actors innovate way faster than companies can keep up with. So companies cast a wide net with their solutions. And the cycle continues.
- Comment on Google Confirms Non-ADB APK Installs Will Require Developer Registration 1 month ago:
The vast majority of malware isn’t delivered via play store because of the existing measures and protections they have. Same reason you see very little app-store-based malware on iOS. DISCLAIMER: YES MALWARE EXISTS ON APPLE HARDWARE PLEASE DON’T SHOUT AT ME. Talking specifically about anything installed via first party stores on both platforms.
Their main issue is this: dumb people install apks from spurious website and infect their phones. The least controllable and most pervasive factor here is the intelligence and knowledge of the user which cannot be controlled for by Google. So by eliminating the ability to exploit this entirely, it will eliminate that kind of malware.
It’s a sledgehammer solution that naturally comes with many downsides like disrupting intelligent and knowledgeable users that just want to hack around with FOSS and such.
Google is relying on It being too expensive for malware creators to have to guide each individual user through adb installation and usage process just to get access to their phone. Most scammers only do that level of interaction to extract actual cash/gift cards from the target.
I am personally and directly affected by their decision in many negative ways, but I’m not so dense as to not understand why they’re doing it.
