When I saw the process to add Google drive support to an app I thought: “wouldn’t be easier to just discontinue the public APIs?”
If I was a dev I would immediately remove the integration instead of paying the required thousands (yearly!) to keep it. Then in the app explain the situation to the customer, add a referral link to Dropbox, onedrive or other competitors
That and the process of being audited for your app to gain access to Google Drive is apparently a nightmare on top of being super expensive.
No wonder so many apps don’t even bother adding the ability to sync files with like Joplin.
I hope the EU eventually crack down on that bullshit.
