A wish for the future: pay and banking apps should run on open source Mobile phones

@EU_Commission the ability to remove pre-installed apps would be awesome.

I think Chrome and Bing might lose a bit of weight 😉

@EU_Commission I hope this hits Samsung too, their apps are.horrible, bloated and I'd like to replace them...

@EU_Commission I didn't knew the ability to remove preinstalled apps is part of it. That would be awesome but I suspect there is a whole in the legislation and "essential" apps still can't be removed. Anyways it's a step in the right direction.

@EU_Commission keep up the good work, but I feel just like how US supreme court was bought by the billionaires, they will come for EU, even if it takes them multiple decades to achieve that goal (already started with brexit)... Best of luck defending yourselves from those parasites.

@EU_Commission could we somehow implement a law, that would cause EULAs to be short and easy to understand? There is no way people actualy read 90+ page agreement and then decide if they are going to use that service or not.

@EU_Commission congratulations! This is a great piece of law!

I hope it will force Microsoft to open up #Microsoft365 so document sharing actually works easily with non-Microsoft users.

That will be a day long remembered, because that the moment it's 'you must sign up for an account' walled garden anti-competitive nonsense.

@EU_Commission

How long until we get this option on phones?

This one definetively is in the right directiion, it only came 'a bit late' and is way too short.

There is no choice, if soneone wants me to use WhatsApp, AirDrop or AirPlay.
In my private environment I can say 'no, thanks' (and socially isolate myself), but when it comes to companys (e.g. discounts), communities (e.g. soccer for kids) or public services (e.g. schools), I have no choice. I simply have to use a device that supports it.

Still no chance for other manufacturers or data sensible devices.

When my school says (obviously it has the right to do so): we use AppleTV (they call it 'concept') then I can not use my #SailfishOS #LineageOS #PostmarketOS #Mobian Devices or my #Debian #Convertible. In this case even #Windows or #Android are useless because of #Apple patents and #walledGarden s.

So the 'digital market' still isn't abke to regulate itself and still is a game of monopoly.
Still no reason to celebrate #DMA

@EU_Commission Meta has broken Messenger on the web and via privacy/harm reduction focused desktop apps like Caprine by forcing the installation of the Messenger mobile app to even have access to the selection, so they're clearly engaged in malicious compliance at this point.

@EU_Commission 🤣😂🤣😂

@EU_Commission I don’t believe a word you guys say. You don’t care about users, it’s all about your version of control. I’ll trust Apple over anything you guys come up with.

@EU_Commission Android/google apps can be disabled but can't be removed, nothing have changed.

@EU_Commission

But they don't. Today I tried again deinstalling pre-installed app on Windows
11. No way.

@EU_Commission I went to a phone shop recently and said I wanted to buy a Google Pixel in an iPhone box and they looked at me like I was an idiot, but I told them the EU would be fixing that soon! I cant wait until I can buy a Google Pixel in an iPhone box with the instructions and warranty leaflet from a Samsung and a Motorola branded USB-C charge cable. 🤪

@EU_Commission
Where is Google and Samsung in this list?
If you buy a Samsung device and try to use it, they force you to sign in with a Samsung account.
