Google Play release

I think it'd be great for

• you to have a source of revenue.

And given how polished the icon pack is,

• draw people to open source software.

I got started by termux-styling myself, basically thought I'm fooling the devs by pirating the paid app 😆

I was actually thinking about doing this earlier, but still gotta set up a google dev account

Pretty nifty as it isnt violating the gpl..

[Aman9das]

But I'm no lawyer, you should talk to the fdroid people or something

just in case https://github.com/fossas/commons-clause

not a good option as of now to use commonclasue as per fossas/commons-clause#11

I think it isn't compatible with F-Droid because you can't call it technically open-source according to themselves.

Working on getting this done btw, I've submitted it to Google Play, and now I have to wait if it gets approved.

[Donnnno]

Yea, maybe. But I'm not doing this to be competitive with others. I just want an open-source icon pack with a slightly bigger reach.
I personally think that 2,50 isn't much, especially when you count in all the work that has been done for it.

But fair, I'll think about it :^)

[Donnnno]

I mean it still is free, and always will be, just not on Google Play

[Aman9das]

2,50 isn't much, especially when you count in all the work that has been done for it.

I know lol.. but it's about optimizing total revenue. Not making every user pay the intellectual debt

I'll look into creating variants with different colours then you can publish a fleet on play store, pretty great with android 12 around the corner..

That'd be dope :)

The guy worked harder than us on each icon, made more icons, made more icons, is cheaper and still has less than 500 installs :(

[Donnnno]

I've lowered the price to 1.50 euros, but not gonna get any lower than that.
Pricing is something that everyone has to decide for itself.
I don't really care about big numbers on Google Play, it's already an over saturated marked there. F-Droid is nice in that sense, I mean, we have the biggest open-source icon pack on there.

Honestly, I just want to earn my $25 I invested in becoming a Google Dev back :^)

The light version hasn't been updated in Play Store

[Donnnno]

Yea, gotta do that too. Had some issues with the build number. So delayed it. Feels kinda pointless to update for 0 people
