I don't care if it's android or anything else, the moment my phone does that is the moment I switch to something else.

"Scammers" also exist on the Play Store. Google should start by cleaning it up.

I, as the owner of my device, don't want to wait 24h.

I hope this will popularize the ROM community again. It gradually faded out due to mainstream ROMs having every perk of the custom ROMs but now the custom ROMs can start offering freedom, which no official ROM will offer.

I want an extra day added to the warranty of any device I purchase, as it will be useless during that time

The square app will not run on a phone that has developer mode enabled. I turned developer mode on to disable annoying animations, so now I can't take card payments unless I carry around a second phone.

If Google goes through with this, my payment phone won't be able to run any third party apps.

at best this is not losing at this very moment

What do they mean reauthenticate after 24h? I can't authenticate as I don't have a Google account. Although I do unfortunately have Google play installed, my phones can't have it removed.

still just not gonna update my phone for a while until they've for sure have allowed side loading. Got my pixel because it's just a nice phone, and i can put graphene on it when it's paid off. Half of my apps are all from f-droid, too.
