Beehaw's community for socialists, communists, anarchists, and non-authoritarian leftists (this means anti-capitalists) of all stripes. A place for all leftist and labor news and discussion, as long as you're nice about it.

Non-socialists are welcome to come to learn, though it's hard to get to in-depth discussions if the community is constantly fighting over the basics. We ask that non-socialists please be respectful and try not to turn this into a "left vs right" debate forum by asking leading questions or by trying to draw others into a fight.

They're one YouTube video away from VPN and APKPure.

Google can remotely remove and install apps, even without user notice.

TIL. Time to think a little harder about de-googling.

As a proof, open the app's page on the play store on your web browser on PC, you'll be offered to install the app to one of your devices logged in. It's the inverse, not the exact thing I said, but closely related
