Sadly yes. Remember how it took donkey years for them to remove Clean Master?

Still so mad the company behind it bought ES File Manager and run it to the ground.

There was this picture app that lot of people loved called quick pic that got sold to cheetah.

Don't like that such sketchy companies are allowed to operate on the play store.

Oh, I forgot about quick pic! Fucking Cheetah Mobile.

[–] fne8w2ah@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

For this reason, I've blacklisted all of Cheetah Mobile's links on my DNS to this day.

There is this QuickPic mod on XDA that I've been using since it got bought out by Cheetah. You should check it out.

Thank you for making me aware of this mod. Time to install for nostalgia.

[–] Justly0250@lemdro.id 2 points 1 year ago

It's feature packed & light weight. Check it out.

Have you tried Simple Gallery Pro? It's free on F-Droid

[–] Justly0250@lemdro.id 3 points 1 year ago

yep. All SIMPLE MOBILE APPS are awesome. It's just that I've been using QuickPic for a very long time now (~7-8 years).Switching feels odd now.
