Google have suspended Element in the Play Store without notifying us; we're reaching out to find out what's going on. Apologies for the inconvenience; in the interim there's https://f-droid.org/en/packages/im.vector.app/ but it's a few versions behind. We'll post updates here.

@matrix I Wonder if this is something to do with new wallstreetbets channel.
@matrix WHAT‽
Isn't banning the element app (presumably because somebody's hosting a server with bad content) the same as if they were to ban Firefox because somebody hosts a bad website‽
Absolute insanity - and thanks to everyone for pointing out Fdroid exists, having a good look there now!
@matrix
Our overlords are at it again.

@matrix that's why we Fdroid :)
You'll likely have to take legal action, and use social media leverage to get anywhere with an appeal.
@matrix Could you work together with @fdroidorg to figure out a way to get up-to-date versions of #element in there faster?
