I’m assuming this isn’t also the update to 0.19.5
No rush or anything, but do you have a rough ETA for when that is planned?

This isn’t new news, this has been the case for decades.
There’s a load of people out there voting to be poorer
They’ll bring out a cheaper version after a while where you need to open a load of advertising packets around the popcorn before you can get to it
Ah fair play, I didn’t realise unrar was from the same guy, cheers for the extra context.
So I guess we go back to what else it could be:
There’s probably other reasons I’ve not thought of, but just a couple of the above are enough to explain it IMO
We’re talking about Android, unrar doesn’t have anything to do with this really.
RAR is and will continue to be a proprietary format with an owner who can seek royalties.
It’s like saying Google should stop licensing MPEG because ffmpeg exists—it simply doesn’t work like that
And there’s not really any money to be made charging licenses to open source projects—see ffmpeg/vlc
Google including it in android though means they can charge licenses as a per unit fee because, basically, Google (or phone manufacturers) is a company with money.
I think a big part of it for RAR specifically is that it’s a proprietary format that would technically require Google to license it, and for the tiny percentage of users that would benefit, they don’t bother.
A seemingly random but relevant example is the Japanese travel card situation with Pixel phones—every pixel on the planet has the necessary hardware to support Japanese travel cards since the pixel 6, however only pixel phones bought in Japan can use the feature (locked by the OS) because it would mean Google would have to pay a per-device cost worldwide.
This is kinda a similar situation I’d bet, they’ve proven they would rather not include the feature than pay for licensing
I suppose you’d fall into my “you’d install a file manager app if you actually needed it” category
People don’t tend to need to browse local archive formats on their phones I guess, and if they do, they’ll have a file manager app with support.
There’s support for some formats if your files are in cloud storage like Google drive, which is a more likely use case for phone users
Even more odd is there being a Brit in charge of Amtrak
Isn’t there a single qualified American that cares about trains?
Everyone keeps telling me “you’ll understand when you’ve got one”
I’m thinking that’s a pretty irresponsible gamble
Genuinely I love a good pixar film on a hangover day, and I had literally no idea this film existed
Dune 2 was great though
I wish there was a Google translate for memes
Got no idea what’s going on here
That’s a weird emoji to use for elixir
I guess the main ones for me are the improved federation capabilities (wordpress, discourse, etc) and the image proxying. But there’s a few smaller nice-to-haves too.
