I just wanted to say the only reason I even strayed from Reddit is because of ljDawson’s incredible app, Sync. I used it on Reddit for years and then I learned he continued the project here on Lemmy.
I ditched iPhone again and bought a Pixel Fold after learning this and here I am. Totally worth it. This app is even better than Apollo.
Thanks so much Mr. Dawson for making Lemmy feel good.
No, it sandboxes Google Play Services just like any other app would be on Android. On stock android, Google Play Services essentially run as root.
