We signed @keepandroidopen 's open letter calling on lawmakers, developers, and users to put pressure on Google to stop its recent maneuvers to further dominate Android, preventing alternative libre applications and systems from existing on it. Let’s make some noise, enough is enough: https://keepandroidopen.org/

Nous avons signé la lettre ouverte de @keepandroidopen appelant les législateur.ices, développeu.r.ses et utilisateur.ices à mettre la pression sur Google, pour que ce dernier arrête les manœuvres récentes de domination supplémentaire sur Android, empêchant d’avantage les applications et systèmes libres alternatifs d’exister dessus. Faisons du bruit, assez c’est assez: https://keepandroidopen.org/fr/

Es ist keine Woche her, und ich habe die erste individuell verfasste Antwort.
Android muss eine offene Plattform bleiben.

Verifica sviluppatori su Android: KDE sostiene Keep Android Open contro lo stop alle app fuori Play Store!
#KDE supporta Keep Android Open contro la verifica obbligatoria degli sviluppatori: dal 2026 (in Italia dal 2027) l’installazione di app su Android certificato richiede registrazione e identità accertata.
La campagna Keep Android Open è seguibile anche nel gruppo Open Source qui: @opensource

Soeben kontaktiert wegen dem Android-Entwicklerverifizierungsprogramm von Google:
✅ Europäische Kommission, Wettbewerb
✅ Europäische Kommission, Kartellrecht
✅ Europäische Kommission, DMA Team
Hier meine Mail als Anregung: https://kaffeemitkoffein.de/keepandroidopen.txt CC0 1.0
Als nächstes noch ein paar EU-Abgeordnete per Brief anschreiben.
Ja, macht es per Brief. Das beeindruckt.
Bitte.
Die Europäische Kommission könnt Ihr in jeder EU-Sprache anschreiben, auch auf Deutsch.
Just like our friends at many other FOSS projects, we believe it is essential for #Android as a platform to stay open. That’s why are signing the #KeepAndroidOpen letter calling on Google to back down and encouraging everyone to do the same.

An Open Letter Opposing Android Developer Verification
@fdroidorg the Free and Open Source Android App Repository

En agosto de 2025, Google anunció que, a partir de septiembre de 2026, ya no será posible desarrollar aplicaciones para la plataforma Android sin haberse registrado previamente en Google. Esto implica:
Pagar tarifas a Google
Aceptar los términos y condiciones de Google
Subir un documento de identidad gubernamental oficial.
Subir evidencia de la clave de firma privada del desarrollador
Listar todos los identificadores de aplicaciones actuales y futuros

The OpenStreetMap Foundation has signed the open letter to Google to Keep Android Open.
Just found out Google is planning to end installing Android apps outside its control by Sept 2026. Android always felt open, like you actually had a choice
Now I'm realizing how much of my usage depends on that freedom, and how different things could look if it's gone

#KeepAndroidOpen
FSFE signed an open letter addressed to Sundar Pichai, CEO of Not sure where #Google asked for feedback about their developer verification program, but they surely didn't talk with #FLOSS devs, civil society, privacy organisations or their #Android users
#FDroid did since September, and interacted with folks in the Fediverse, forum, email and in person
They all voiced one opinion: "developer verification must be stopped"
@marcprux has written an open letter, signed by likeminded organisations who want to #keepandroidopen

Google seems to have decided to lock down Android devices.
It's time to Fight back
Fermeture d'Android en vue : En septembre 2026 l'installation d'application sur un appareil Android sera soumise à l'approbation par google des développeurs et du canal de distribution (le sien) payant. Réagissez. #keepandroidopen https://keepandroidopen.org/fr/
No pasarán. ✊🏼✊🏼✊🏼 #DéGAFAMisation #KeepAndroidOpen
