The reason most of us use LC is because it's the language for "the rest of us." That's why I can't contribute to the OSS project, LC is the only language I know. I suspect there are relatively few of us who know C and are capable of contributing.

It's true Android permissions have changed. Only apps that require full file access, like file managers, can access everything without user interaction. Those apps must be specially vetted before being released in the Play Store. Other apps must put up a file dialog so that users can choose a file, ...
