VideoLAN @videolan App Stores were a mistake. Currently, we cannot update VLC on Windows Store, and we cannot update VLC on Android Play Store, without reducing security or dropping a lot of users… For now, iOS App Store still allows us to ship for iOS9, but until when?
i love how google is not even trying to hide the fact that they are engaging in obvious extortion
“give us the keys to all your secrets so that we can secretly inject NSA malware, or be setenced to obscurity”
anyway this is what we get when we trust gargantuan multi billion corpos not to royally fuck us over
Okay, but are they still releasing updates via other channels? The newest version on their website is 3.5.4, the same that I got through the play store.
But why is fdroid so behind?
So install and updated it without going through the store apps … you can download all the installers directly from their website. Absolute non-issue.
Reading this I remembered that stupid apple is now forced to let us sideload on iphones. I just kicked off the ios update to enable it.
