Had a good run will miss it if the devs are shutting it down/quitting can’t they pass it on to others ibam pretty sure many will be happy to run it oh well.fdroid has become the gols standard monopoly in safe private foss store that it will be hard to replace if anyone know any better alternative suggest? Also cant they just kick out that ass maintainer ?
I too would like to know. Alternatively, does anyone know of any reputable F-Droid alternatives?
Edit: sorry, as the guy below stated, this is not an alternative just a new coat of paint
I’ve been using droid-ify for a bit now and quite like it
That’s just an alternative front-end for the same service. The problem is the distribution itself, not the client used to access it.
Oh shit, sorry, thank you for the correction
+1 for droid-ify. Much more polished than f-droid too, IMO.
I recommend using Obtainium. It is not a store by himself but it is compatible with a lot of stores including github.
Yeah, I also thought about Obtanium. Mind those are two different approaches. F-Droid builds things from source, removes trackers and invading libraries, sometimes patches something and there are maintainers who have an independent look at things. Obtanium just fetches what the original developers uploaded to Github and installs it on your device. For the better or worse.
Thanks! I’ll look it up!
Is there something like obtainium with the ability to build from source?
Github isn’t a “store”. It’s just upstream repos where the owner can upload any artifact they like.
didn’t say it was, and that wasn’t even the point
