100%, I was one of the many vocal devs on the android bug report who complained about the change of scoped storage.

They caved in for the current release, but they are going to force it in android 11.

On the bright side I think this will cause android engineers to become more of a specialty as the platform migrates more and more from just another java implementation to a whole new world of apis!




Exactly. Ten years ago, Android was a GNU/Linux computer, you could do a lot with it. Now Android is a set of APIs.


That's a heck of a bright side
