Known Repositories

I’ve never explicitly asked about the servers, but I told him about my fork. He replied that he would have no problem with it, although he felt that it was very difficult to do – the password hard lock – and that it would require too much effort from my side to maintain it, which is definitely true :smile:

It was announced two months ago, with no complaints so far. Let me say there’s no business behind Molly, just my wish for better endpoint security in Signal.

Langis, a fork of Signal

@Redflower thanks, I included it in the wiki post.

Regarding post edits: At the top right of the post, there’s two links. The first one is an edit counter that tells you how many times the post has been edted; clicking this will bring up a UI that shows you what changed in each edit (the other link displays the time since the last edit, and seems to link to post itself; not sure what the ?u= parameter is for)

I am now unable to edit the post to add signatures. The post is currently too long for discourse. maybe @hans or someone else can increase the post length limit? It seems to have been done on python’s discourse.

Changes to make: Add my signing key to my animanga repo (same key as the other repo), and correct archive link (it currently shows /fdroid/repo, not /fdroid/archive).

I’ve tried using that history. @ best, it’s very cumbersome on a long wikipage, as it hasn’t a proper edit summarizer; ½ the time though, I can’t even find what was edited @ all!

What say y’all that we split this wikipage? I.E., leave the Stable repos here/as-is, & create an additional page each for the Testing, Archive, & Abandoned repos? It’d also help that awkwardness (I’ve :wink:) previously mentioned.

To that end, does anyone know whether just anyone can make wikipages here, or does it require an admin or what?
I guess it doesn’t require much, as it’ll let me do it. Still, I’d rather wait for a consensus, because AFAICT we haven’t here Wikipedia’s

Done, I split them up and added a sentence at the top with the link to the other topics containing repo lists. But I don’t have the permission to change the title to “Known stable repositories”

I can’t login to wiki page with forum username and pass (even though it says that “Accounts are unified across the F-Droid site”). When trying to register on wiki I’m getting redirected to login page? What’s the right way to register?

The actual Wiki is obsolete for about 2 years not.

Only the buildserver update pages are live.

How did you added nit programming language repository in f-droid ? When copy paste from f-droid site, it is not working because there is no fingerprint to add in f-droid . Then how did you add the nit programming language repository. Please tell me. I want it too…

You don’t need a fingerprint, add the url and refresh.

Hello, just for my understanding :

  1. Why all those apps are in separate repos ? Is it due to F-Doid requirements, or anything else ? why to not include them in F-Droid official repo with a warning (like for non free services) ?
  2. Can I trust a third party repo ?

Sorry to update this thread with this “suspicious” question, but I am discovering this “repos” feature. Thank you for your help !

The main repo has higher purity conditions, eg. Fully FOSS, while same apps can’t or devs won’t

Thank you for your kind reply. Last question please : does F-droid members/community audit those repos (I mean, the repos listed above) against security issues ?

For instance, if I take Molly, shall I fully trust the developer, or is his/her code checked against security issues once it is compatible with F-Droid ?

Thank you again.

No, we can’t, each user should do their research before adding anything.

This is just for convenience, there’s a reason these are not added by default in the client.
