- Added missing Italian translation on the donation version
This is a minor update. Originally it was just to add the missing italian translation in the donation version (where I did have the permissions since a few years ago...but never noticed until one user asked why it wasn't available!)
The new variant IS a notable new thing, and I think I should explain a few things.
First of all: the normal variant will NEVER have ads. This new variant is the one with them, so if you do want to see ads you will need to 'opt in' explicitly (by installing this new version I mean).
So, about this new variant. I published it for two main reasons:
- First: If there are users that do want to support me but do not want to pay, they now have an option to see ads. Honestly I'm not sure why, but the option is there (and I do have maybe too many options...even if donations are almost nonexistent, thank goodness I don't need the money).
- Second: for bad actors. I don't have a strong confirmation, but I do have very good reasons to suspect that my app is being cloned and/or used by some people with bad intentions. They will use whatever versions are available, so I'm sure they will use this one too.
In the end, I see this as some sort of experiment. In case you didn't know, I was banned from admob/adsense 7 years ago I never knew the reason (of course, they never say) but I suspect it was something to do with invalid traffic. In the middle of summer I received an email about some changes to my adsense account, which I marked as spam (I still though my account was banned). A month or so ago I did tested admob for a different reason, and I was shocked to discover that my account was deleted or something like that, and I could create a new one. To be honest I've though about a version with ads in the past, but I couldn't do it due to the banning. So when this happened, I just knew I had to try.
Still, and as I've already said, I would NEVER add ads to the normal app version (even if I've received pressure to do so). And let me say, I'm doing this out of my own principles, even if it could be really easy to change that and start earning lots of money (the app does have almost 2 million users daily...).
Honestly, I could go on and say lots of different reasons, but in the end I just do this because I want to be able to look over some developers's shoulders, those that sell themselves for money, and no matter what I say, the only way to do that is to actually don't do it. And so I won't.
