This is ridiculous, and really a bad news for everyone as there's no way to talk with an human

Original source is unfortunately on reddit, which I can't link

I assume you can still use it as is, you just can't download it again from play store if you remove it

Thanks, refund already requested but I also installed SD Maid SE from F-Droid in any case.

But the refund will only hurt the dev, not Google

Or Google will keep and pocket all the money from a suspended dev account?

[-] NNorAl@feddit.cl 4 points 1 year ago

Google responded, they say the refund doesn't justify more that 48 hours after the purchase, so they'll just keep my money. The idea was to donate the money directly to Darken, didn't wanted to let Google take it's commission. But I think I'll buy him a coffee anyway, I'm using the app since at least 2015, that's the least I can do after all.
