      Play Store has strict rules for apps with user generated content. You have to provide ways to block and report users/content to stay on the play store. Glider didn’t provide a way to automatically report things by the user as hacker news doesn’t provide one. So, google suspended it. Here’s the github issue if you are interested: https://github.com/Mosc/Glider/issues/83

        Yeah I’ve seen a few things get messed up by that idiotic rule. When you euphemistically say “reasons” in italics, it sounds worse than it is. I assumed you were trying to gently tell people “Google suspended the dev for being racist” or something.

          It had been a while since i last remembered it, but i knew the reason was stupid. So, I had written reasons in italic. But, I guess that was up for open interpretation and that included questionable stuff.
