Google rolled out their new AI assistant Gemini and forcibly disabled certain features of the old Assistant.

For example: Gemini can't search your screen on demand so Google decided that... old assistant also shouldn't and disabled this feature for everyone. Now whether you allow Gemini or not, screen search button does nothing.

It's evolving, just backwards... #Google #Android

This is devastating: Amazon is giving up on Android!

There were startups with huge focus on Amazon publishing deals to support and maintain versions run by other teams for Google Play. It was somewhat a competition to prevent the monopoly of Google.

Amazon app store will be shut down on August 20, 2025. It was initially launched in spring of 2011.

It still blows my mind that Godot Engine is also available on Android. People from developing countries are often unable to buy computers and still have a passion to try out SOME game development.

Do I recommend it? Nope: it's far behind the full version, mostly due to bad Android drivers and inconsistent features support. Even on Qualcomm 888 Plus it works extremely slow and yes, you'd better have a USB dongle, keyboard, and mouse.
