Close the app and find another one.

I just used it to try some NFC-proof wallets, scanning my bank card with and without the wallet. I don't use it everyday.

Is it part of the apps that have been recently sold to a commercial company? If so, you have to uninstall it and download the "Fossify" equivalent to keep the open source version.

I have no problem using NFC with GrapheneOS on a Pixel 4A.

The argument that Debian doesn't have the latest packages is only valid for stable repository, right?

Wouldn't Debian with unstable or testing repo be better than Linux Mint?

This is an important criteria for me. If I can't read the full article without leaving the reader and without a WebView, I won't keep the RSS feed.

Does it detect the paywalls and cookie walls too?

The model is open source, but not the whole site. It was made to help in programmation, so sometimes it makes funny answers when you ask something that has nothing to do with programmation and it tries to answer giving you a Python code.

Updated 18 months ago on F-Droid, but the Github looks still active. I hope they'll soon have a releasable version.

This functionality can be local. I use the Google keyboard with internet access blocked and it works. The only thing missing is the ability to search for emojis typing a word (they are still in the list) and some features that I never used and never understood why they are in a keyboard since it's not related to typing text, like the gifs.

The only reason I see for a keyboard to need internet connection is to update the dictionary when it's modified, but it shouldn't prevent to work with an outdated dictionary.

When I searched for alternatives a few months ago, I couldn't find anything satisfying.

Use cash if you want privacy. The card is linked to your name too.

I don't like Ubuntu because of their forcing method to use Snap package manager.

I don't like Manjaro because of its poor dependency management. Many dependencies are not declared, so that if you update a package, it won't update the undeclared dependency and it won't work any longer. You have to update everything or nothing, and when disk space becomes low, updating everything at once is impossible.
