 johnsdwf | How about leveraging f droid with a separate repo where everything is upto us ? That would get Devs started without having to build yet another store from the start? | 16:15:59 |
| johnsdwf | This would only avoid f droids slow built times | 16:18:11 |

First its US only. I don't think something like this will be allowed in India. What? Why? | 16:26:16 |

Any cellphone is a computer and it must run fully free software India will not allow it. Remember before Jio you had to get manual form filed, photocopy of documents, yada yada | 16:49:13 |

I don't think there is much benefit to us running a separate fdroid repo, we can just make fdroid itself better by contributing. If main fdroid itself is not getting contributors how do you think we will find contributors to our fdroid instance? | 18:23:52 |

Lets start brainstorming | 18:27:27 |
 insaanimanav | rnayabed I have a small streamdeck thing I use for shorcuts in ides | 18:36:00 |
| insaanimanav | It's just an Arduino Leonardo witha bunch of buttons and a potentiometer | 18:36:20 |
| insaanimanav | It's still on a breadboard and hence not kind of a complete project | 18:36:41 |

 raghukamath | https://scroll.in/latest/984353/whatsapp-is-a-private-app-dont-join-it-says-delhi-hc-on-plea-against-new-privacy-policy | 05:05:29 |
| raghukamath | I think court cannot make guidelines and laws, I didn't understand the logic of petitioners, they should ask the govt to make good privacy law. And here the court is correct to say that whatsapp has rights to provide services under its own terms. you agree to those terms when signing up. if you don't read the terms that is your problem. | 05:07:08 |
| raghukamath | It is the same case with twitter. they can ban anyone if you violate their terms. | 05:07:35 |
| raghukamath | I see that major issue is that people think that twitter, whatsapp or any other app is a pubic property. They should ask the govt to make proper privacy law whichwill serve as guidelines to all apps. even then you will be still bound by the terms | 05:08:47 |
