This week in (TWIF) just landed.

We've had interesting behavior with phones that did not tell the truth about their capabilities, and fun debugging armv7 / arm64 builds of SimpleX.

Also, we have 4 new apps:

  • Kitsune - for your Kitsu.io library
  • Open Biking - Bluetooth application for generating training on an indoor bike
  • Self Attendance Tracker - Attendance Tracker for students
  • mensen - App for Dresden’s canteens

when was the last sync?

fdroidorg,
@fdroidorg@floss.social avatar

@nuclearfog you probably know that builds and signing take some time and that it's a continuous process (https://gitlab.com/fdroid/wiki/-/wikis/FAQ#how-long-does-it-take-for-my-app-to-show-up-on-website-and-client).

But for your question: the last index update was 4 days ago https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/commits/master?search=Update+known+apks

@Billie Any SDK is welcome, even 34.

This week in (TWIF) was published a few hours ago.

The current topics include the redesign of how to enable the archive repositories, and that it's not ideal yet.

Also, we have 3 updates:

  • Aurora Store is ready for manual update and will be the suggested version on the next index update
  • Grazer Linuxtage had to rename their application ID, so you probably have to re-install it
  • NewPipe is finally reproducible again, and 0.27.0 fixes a lot of bugs

  • maid for LLMs on your phone
  • Proton Pass finally available

@Nitrovenom all our apps are open source, so the risk is really, really low. But as the xz backdoor taught us, that we can't be 100% sure.
The hopefully is for the remaining 0,0001% probability ;)

@el_haych2024 We track the EU DMA process in weeklies on https://f-droid.org/news. EU wants to open the mobile ecosystems, to empower their users. Apps will be fine in 15 and onward.

@Tejas@floss.social avatar

The current version of #Mozilla #Firefox is 125.0.2 #Librewolf is still stuck at version 124.0.1 & #MullBrowser from #FDroid is at 124.2.
Not sure, why both of them are not getting any further updates? Have they already given up? Time to switch back to vanilla #Firefox?

fdroidorg,
@fdroidorg@floss.social avatar

@Tejas we are waiting for Mozilla's help to build 125: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1891964

We have a new This week in #FDroid (TWIF) post.

Thanks to the EU's DMA, 3rd party stores will get more love and treated more equally than before.

Tailscale is doing a redesign, until that's done we've released the crash fix update.

Conversations and Quicksy have their 10th anniversary and celebrate with a design update.

Last but not least, we had 10 new and 160 updated apps this week.

@bart
There are plenty of people working on app stores on iOS, but using F-Droid repository as a base might be a goal.

2 days ago I reported about a patch having been applied to the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repo aka – but I didn't give much details. After it was tested now at the IoD test & staging area, and running smoothly for two days for the public one, I reported back to its author @obfusk that all seems smooth, and she decided to make POC & patch public. You can find the full details at https://github.com/obfusk/fdroid-fakesigner-poc & https://www.openwall.com/lists/oss-security/2024/04/08/8 now. @fdroidorg @eighthave be welcome using it!

PSA: The panic button features built into F-Droid break when targeting newer Android SDK versions (e.g. ) due to new restrictions.

It might be possible to get them working again, but we currently do not have the bandwidth to maintain this. We welcome contributions to get it going again. Until then, removing the panic features looks to be our only responsible course of action. includes built-in panic features like app removal, so that is a recommended replacement.

Bad news: just released version 7.1.0 of my TKCompanionApp on @fdroidorg and... it crashes! 😭
If there is any user of my little app, please stick with version 7.0.0 until I fix this.

fdroidorg,
@fdroidorg@floss.social avatar

@AAMfP we've disabled 7.1.0, so it should no longer be available on the next index update

@videolan you recently had a tweet that you can't update the app on Google Play. What about tagging a new release for F-Droid, so that we can update?

Just so you know, we're starting to release a new version of ALL addons (on Play Store). Source code at https://github.com/AnySoftKeyboard/AnySoftKeyboard/tree/release-branch-addons-v5.0-r1

This roll-out includes fixes to many languages, but mostly was triggered due to Play Store's new guidelines:

  • Each pack will now have a generic app and launcher icon.
  • various Android 13+ privacy and other guidelines adjustments.

@fdroidorg@floss.social avatar

@anysoftkeyboard we would also like a better process for ASK. Probably this needs some work from our and your side. Can we discuss the details in an issue?

Hi @protonvpn We already have Proton VPN on F-Droid. And our users are looking forward to getting more Proton apps on F-Droid. Do you also want that?

Both Drive ( https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/merge_requests/12721 ) and Pass (https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/merge_requests/13312 ) are waiting for your help to be finalized.

fdroidorg,
@fdroidorg@floss.social avatar

@esplovago @protonvpn @protonmail F-Droid contributors cleaned up non-FOSS deps and opened PRs for Fastlane, but we need Proton's feedback next to: agree with the inclusion and said modifications, start tagging, maybe include an actual foss flavor that takes care of the cleaning.
