Fun fact, back in 2018 I emailed them asking if someone would take over once they were not able to have that responsibility, and if so, who. They replied the next day, and just said (copy and pasted from that email):

Yes, it will be.  You would not know them.

It does, I think I’m a bit confused here. I think the apks may be signed with the original key from the previous repo, but that key doesn’t necessarily have to line up with what’s in the GitHub repo since a lot of the repo tasks were removed or changed. I’ll edit my post, but this kind of highlights how messy this handover was, and how confusing it is to users (myself included).

This isn’t something you’d really want to mess with, since typically it has full filesystem access.

The new repo has two releases in it now. These releases are not signed with the original key as far as I can tell. Further, GitHub is silently redirecting to the new repo, even in Obtainium, meaning it’s possible that if you had this previously installed via Obtainium and updated now, you may have unsigned apks installed that may or may not contain the changes in the repo.

This is a mess. I deleted the repo from Obtainium (luckily I don’t auto install updates) and will wait to see what happens over the next few months. Might just save my notes in a network share instead of using syncthing from my phone. Idk, notes are all that I was using it for.

I prefer my PC off when I’m not using it, that way it’s encrypted.

Containers are better than any other option, so of course they’re being used! I’m gunna use containers even harder!

They’ve been running on that PR spin since 2023.

To each their own I suppose. CoMaps is great for me, and I’ve never used carplay.

If it’s missing data (such as locations) that is the issue, then you can update the map yourself and help others migrate at the same time. Every little bit helps, even if you don’t plan on fully moving over. I’ve done over a thousand changes to my local area and it’s actually more accurate than Google Maps in a lot of the commercial areas. You don’t have to do a thousand things though, like I said, every little bit helps.

Of course, it doesn’t help for outside of your area if you only do changes locally, but if enough people were willing to update the map, things could change.

There’s one song that immediately makes me cry with the first lyric. I save it for just that occasion, when I know I need to get it out. It helps so much.

You did the right thing. In my opinion, that is a valid reason to ghost someone.

I use M-DISC (not all blu-rays are M-DISC) for backing up important documents.

You can probably blame the people selling 3d printed dragons and other slop at conventions for your sales drying up, assuming you don’t sell those. That fully made people think that 3d printing was a novelty, unfortunately.
