      My card keeping app was bought by Klarna. Had to migrate my account so I could even view them. Turns out Klarna is a bank, so now even deleting my account leaves sensitive information because banks have to keep those.

      Also the UI was shit.

      Yeah, what’s up with Latvia? Why would people mass-download a grocery store app? Besides, iki is better. At least it was 10 years ago. Do they still have iki?

        I’m from Latvia. I have the app, but I don’t believe for 1 second that it’s the most downloaded one. Hell, half the country doesn’t even like that grocery store and would much rather go to Rimi.

          I don’t remember Rimi. Is it new or was it just small back then? The two main ones were Maxima and iki.

          Happy cake day, btw.

            Yeah, Iki was a loong time ago. Rimi has been the “main” grocery store for quite some time. Maxima has gathered a reputation of being a bit trashier, but also cheaper.

            Didn’t even notice I joined Lemmy a year ago, thanks!

      can it though, or just claims to be able to? as I know no apps without root privileges cqn do such things. unless it just searches things in the gallery recycle bin, in which case it is again useless because the gallery app can be used for that

        It’s not about cheap crap, it’s about the predatory nature of almost all apps shown and how well-known it is that they’re ethically bad.

          People love convenience. And most can’t be assed to get everything from ethical sources.

          Just try going to a grocery store and buy tropical fruit that wasn’t picked by slaves or heavily exploited farmers.

          Sure, it’s not impossible but it’s way easier and cheaper to go for the big brands.

      99% of people who use Temu are dumb. They don’t stop to ask “everything is so cheap, but why?”. Because they get blinded by convenience. And i HATE those people.

        It’s expensive. Don’t forget to buy the floor for your apartment.

        Edit: I’m serious about the floor. Apartments don’t come with flooring included.

        Not with the current political climate I’m afraid. Still hoping for a shift to the left, as our right wing parties just showed they are completely incompetent. Hoping for the best, expecting the worst though.

      You know, I mostly hear about how Soviet-looking Bulgaria still is from my family over that way. Everyone playing Tetris adds to that.

    Downloaded through what?

    99% of all software I use I downloaded from my distro repository, GitHub or torrent trackers. I doubt that this “infographics” counts that.

      I don’t know if it was the case in other countries but in Belgium a very popular app used to store loyalty cards was bought by Klarna. It was not really clear that you could continue to use the old app for a while and not switch to Klarna. So I know a lot of people that just installed the app just to be able to have access to their cards.

      We get a lot of advertising for it here in Belgium and tons of webshops support it, sadly. What a trash company.

        Not just support it but sometimes it’s the only option, so you also have to support their business even if you just paying upfront. (and hand over your personal data)
