Manual APK signing. Code shared via git-over-Nostr.<br/><br/>This is what the phone-to-server stack looks like when you remove every unnecessary intermediary. 2026-02-11T01:04:24Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsf3z9ad4a6cptkpa6u95skcdyp8x54qtl9fz0wu65qgqsh7phhfqqzyz5stqd3dckfue8z30ta6a79ah52unlhtv84c6lc06mq387yqaf2ss7n4ww In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqs0u5crh9qs0fuv5rkqsuu2u5avmld9a6jwu7466e6staha9p3dgysv9vlz9'>nevent1q…vlz9</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>Hi there!
