Appealing the removal didn’t yield any result. Google just repeated the same statement “the app was removed because it uploads the contact list” without even acknowledging any of the arguments I made in the appeal.

I understand that most of my audience here on Mastodon is more ideology aligned with F-Droid but the app sales on Google Play store have contributed significantly to me working (almost) full time on #Conversations_im.

Without the revenue from Google Play I can’t afford this.

    They managed to get it back after removing some convenience features that likely triggered this automated removal, but all in all the situation kinda sucked. Better use F-droid and donate to the developer if you can.
