New TWIF Submission Thread

Summary

Brave providing their official F-Droid repo is a good news IMO. I don’t think mentioning this is promoting non-foss repo.

Summary

To be fair, repos are an F-Droid feature we want to promote in general, so maybe we can wrap this as “while we don’t promote nonfoss, we salute Brave for choosing to distribute their browser in their own f-Droid compatible repo too. We …blah blah…decentralize wfederated, blahblah,” yeah, looks like I was right all along :person_shrugging: :frowning_face: (see reactions in F-Droid: "While we don't promote non-#FOSS apps, we can sal…" - FLOSS.social )

Simple Contacts Pro SE (which is NOT part of SimpleMobileTools apps ⁽¹⁾) has been archived recently (July 5), and its removal from the Main repo actually took place before the latest TWIF (July 17) was published; but the app has not been mentioned in the list of removed apps of that TWIF. So people with this app installed don’t know about its removal.

⁽¹⁾ It’s a fork of Simple Contacts. See « github [dot] com/stephanritscher/Simple-Contacts »

Summary

Nothing related to F-Droid. This community news is similar to Thunderbird FOSS services promotion.

Summary

No, not really
