I would love to see a libre version or a version not released on Google Play. It would be possible to monetize it like FairMail or Threema Libre. It would be a win for all parties.

  • privacy for the end user
  • more customers for the sync team
  • advocacy for libre software

What if I were to tell you that it was possible to buy software online before the Google Play Store existed?

I never said it wasn't possible, but it would require more work for the developer to handle it.

I mean, Cryptomator does sell a license for their software outside of the Play Store but they had to put the extra backend in place to do so.

I'm sure that's not true.
