I've drawn my inspiration from this project while creating WireText, a VSCode plugin for quickly creating mockups with a hand-drawn style, https://gitlab.com/saxion.nl/42/wiretext-code/-/blob/main/RE...
This is UI theory gone wrong. The idea that users will give feedback more freely when something looks unfinished is at best a non-validated theory. This used to work with actual paper prototypes. But going the extra length to make UI designs look hand-drawn, when the users know full well they are computer generated is just busy work. Showing the users what the actual design might look like works better and it actuall…
I'm using this for the AI annotations at https://pagewatch.ai/ Its strange how much different it makes the whole page feel from regular boxes, much more of a tangible/informal feeling. Felt perfect to go with the type of feedback LLM's give.

I tried signing up and scanning apkmirror.com but it immediately came up with a 403. Perhaps your user agent is blocked, you should probably use a custom user agent.

You absolutely can do that. And yes, it does release you from licensing obligations (unless the license included specific clauses).
You should consult a lawyer. It's one thing if it's a clean-room implementation but every IP attorney I have ever interacted with would disagree with you. It doesn't take much for a court to consider something a derivative work.
Of course, there's a gray zone: what about a reimplementation in the same language, but with different variable names? Those cases are why we have courts.
But ... if you figure out how to solve Rathbone's conjecture[0] and reveal the source code for it in C++, my reimplementation of that in Rust or Lua does not constitute a derivative work.
One exception would be if you managed to patent some feature of the algorithm (RSA comes to mind, or frequency-based colors for drawing waveforms). That's a different story.
[0] invented :)

You cannot copyright algorithms. Ergo, the expression of an algorithm in one language is not a copyright violation of an expression of the same algorithm in a different language.

Your advice is dangerous. Consult an attorney.
