Wondering what people are thinking about this and why the internet is so quiet about it. I am not happy. Today it decided I couldn’t use the camera without giving it extensive permissions and agreeing to it. Not cool.

      proprietary camera apps almost always come with proprietary post process algorithms that open source apps dont have access to, hence the better photo quality

      photoncamera on fdroid has its own post process algorithms that are quite decent but the app itself is a bit janky and seems abandoned

      Sometimes you have to uninstall open camera and then reinstall it. It will recalibrate and start being sharp again. Its free and you can have the light on as you like which is great for macros.
