App starts and works, but the message that it was developed for a lower android versions appears. Also getting various App crashes as described in previous issues. But i love this app, its the only open-source music client who supports Deezer (as far as i know) i would love it, if the projected would be continued <3

Hi, I started this app about 3 years ago now i think, and i only owned an Android 7.1 at the time. I designed everything with the deprecated Android Compat Library, and if i want to be compatible with Android 11 i'll have to switch to Jetpack. At the time, my understanding of services in Android wasn't good, and everything was really messy, as Android 8 and 9 both changed stuff for services. I tried to keep updating the app, and made updates for Android 10 as i have one for now 2 months. I must say, it is completely broken. I use it everyday, it crashes everyday. I don't have much time for this project right now (i'm a student, and i have other projects too), and i would need to rebuild everything for Android 11. This is planned, i just don't have a timeline yet, i'll start and work on it when i can. Thank you for your interest in my project, and sorry to disappoint you if that wasn't the answer you expected, i'll tell you when Blade 2.0 is close to release state.
