I am chill but uncool. Not so obvious and ruthlessly odd. I am violently anti-coffee, you addict! Eshara says I'm a lovely bloke. ๐Ÿซฃ OceanSlim's court jester.

"Using a password manager is too complicated for the users of my app." That's really what Will is (possibly accidentally) implying. Assuming that people are too dumb/lazy to use your app is not, in my opinion, a good way to build something that smart, savvy, forward-thinking curious people would want to use. I have held Will in high regard as a creative, reliable dev. This is a critical failure of assessing the potential market of Android users, who fall into about three buckets: 1. The poors running bottom end trash hardware usually on a pre-paid plan. 2. Idiots who buy the latest and greatest just because. 3. Thoughtful people who buy the best they can afford. All of these groups can't afford or can't stand apple products. We are not the same. We want the flexibility of Android devices (that google is intent on killing very shortly in the future ๐Ÿ™„). I say this as someone who has been using an android and running custom ROMs since literally the beginning. (I still have my first G1 in a box and dearly miss physical keyboards...) So, I think Will is just missing the point. And, I haven't detected any anger, just incredulity at the decision to not include what now should be a standard option on any android app out of the gate. I also question the choice to involve Chrome with anything as I simply don't trust chrome at all as Google monkies with it in fairly awfully nefarious ways and I just won't use it for anything on any of my systems. I wish Will well, but I'm certainly not going to use any of his android stuff under the circumstances. View quoted note โ†’

Yeah... No... I'm out. Chrome as a base? Definitely no. Not bothering to support what should be standard signing capabilities? Hard nope. View quoted note โ†’
