Are there any decent Bluetooth trackers for Android that don't require an invasive app or membership? (leminal.space)

I know there are a lot on Ali Express and I'm curious if any are compatible with a FOSS app. I have tried using Tile products in the past but the app and the way they implemented a membership was a bit annoying.

“Announced” is it ready, is it available right now? And I said that was one of the reasons, not the only reason. My credit card only works with Apple Pay, that’s another. There were a whole host of reasons. Google is saying “we’ll do them to!” But at some point it was keep waiting or switch to something that actually existed.

Your credit card doesn't work with Google Pay? lmao what?

But hey, enjoy your new air tag. Make sure to pick up this official Apple FineWoven Key Ring so you can put it on your key chain.

I will just use the dedicated hole in my Chipolo and save $49, but also be at ease that my airtag isn't going to slip out of a fucking case.
