          Better forbid them banning direct installs tbf. And while at it, do the same for iOS.

                              Pounds and euros are not the same

                                  What about pounds of euros?

                                      They don’t use pounds in the EU, so it’d be kilos of Euros.

                                              Easy, one pound is 500 grams. An ounce is 100.

                                      one is €, one is $. i guess they’re fined in € but it’s converted to $ for the convenience of some readers?
