I’m pretty sure the socially unacceptable behavior from homeless drug addicts is driven by factors that drive homelessness and drug addiction and not by the preference of most people to avoid homeless drug addicts in public spaces. Unless you’re implying law enforcement or society at large “clean up” public transportation…

I don’t know why I expected something more complicated. Thanks for posting.

That’s a lot of work to not use Kotlin…

I’ve heard that performance improves offline. Is it possible to set a model loose on a project and let it iteratively work, or is there a better approach?

You’re not a developer, you’re a company, even if you’re doing business as an individual.

The signing key requirement has pros and cons. Cons being that Google can now impersonate developers and inject code at will. This seems somewhat irrelevant in face of the control they already exert through Google Play Services, but it’s obviously bad nonetheless.

Pros being that Google can now keep the signing key secure behind a Google sign-in instead of relying on individual developers to maintain good opsec.

I’m surprised this wasn’t already the case. You’re distributing potentially malicious code to users’ devices, and they expect a base level of safety from the Play Store. You’re free to publish elsewhere, so it’s not like Apple’s policy.

The omission of Swift here tells you all you need to know I think.

Edit: I misread this, but my point stands regarding Swift, it has a pretty big usage-reputation gap.

Have you considered trying Flutter first? The components are Material 3 just like Jetpack Compose, but you can run it pretty much anywhere.
