Was curious to see if I was affected.

Turns out I have it installed via F Droid so a non issue for me.

Just a reminder that there are alternative app stores for some things.

Not a perfect solution for all, but well worth looking into if you want so start sourcing things outside of Google's monopoly store.

I don't believe removing it from the store means it's deleted on every device.

Correct, but it does mean you can't install it on a new device.
