The Google Play system, often referred to as Google System Updates, is a framework for delivering updates to core components of Android devices. It includes updates to the Android operating system, Google Play Store, and Google Play services, focusing on improving security, reliability, and adding new features. This system was introduced with Android 10 and is available on compatible devices, including phones, tablets, and wearables.
Sure, there is a lot to be said about Google being a privacy nightmare, but Google Play system updates don’t release every other day; they’re actually pretty stable.
If you’re able to run a privacy friendly ROM and escape Google do it. But for most people (99,99% of Android users) it is in their best interest to keep their system updated – even if those updates come from Google.
I gave one example, which is the one you scrutinized. There are many reasons why someone who is running an Android (not de googled) device would want to update their Google Play system, however. Just search up what those are for.
Not sure why people are getting so butthurt over this.
My device is not supported officially by any privacy ROMs. I’d rather have some security than expose myself to random threats because of pride lol
Not everyone uses a custom ROM because not everyone has a supported device. If this doesn’t apply to you, just keep scrolling. People man…
Got the latest one. Nothing’s wrong. I don’t want to be exposed to random exploits or something. Google sucks, but this is the next best thing for people who are unable to deGoogle.
Good luck exiting that!
Genuine question:
What’s the point of a long password on Windows? I understand that sometimes you don’t want people accessing your stuff, but all it takes to bypass that and someone access your files is booting off of a USB stick. Or do you perhaps use full disk encryption?
True, but you need powerful server in order to run the most capable Deepseek model, which most people don’t have.
Then don’t lol
You can browse Twitter content here on the fediverse on Mastodon. Just find an instance that supports bird.makeup
To the people getting butthurt: for some people this is a real necessity. I live in a region with many natural disasters, and Twitter is the place I used to go to get weather updates. I don’t use Twitter anymore, but I’d also rather not die. So I’ll use bird.makeup instead.
