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.

OOC, where in the app files are the default repos present? I tried searching, but till date cannot locate. Probably not looking at it correctly.

At now the following repositories give permanent error: i tried some investigation.

  • Rakshazi (trying to contact developer)
  • Platschi (asked them on Reddit)
  • Onosendai (the whole site seems offline)
  • Nitlanguage (the repository seems to actually exist but probably because of wrong setting it can’t be read by F-Droid app)
  • Metatrans (link has changed, I had a look on their website and put here the correct one)
  • I2P (I asked them on Reddit, they had a look and fixed it!)
  • Antox (the app doesn’t exist anymore, so also the repository has been deleted)
  • UnifiedPush (repository not reachable anymore)

UnifiedPush answered that their repository has been deleted since their apps are now all on main F-Droid: UnifiedPush: "@edosecco@mastodon.uno We have closed this repo s…" - Fosstodon

I was also able to finally find Submarine repo contact, waiting for his answer.
