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.

IzzyOnDroid, 1 month ago to security

2 days ago I reported about a #security patch having been applied to the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repo aka #IzzySoftRepo – 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. #targetSdkVersion) 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. #CalyxOS 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, 2 months ago (edited 2 months ago) to random

@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?

fdroidorg, 2 months ago to fdroid

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.

nido, 2 months ago to foss German

So I was looking for a #foss #camera app. Open Camera is great but is too overloaded with features for my everyday usage. Also, I like Material You with it's simple unified UI.
So, since I'm on @iode I realized they host an Aperture fork on their #fdroid instance. Did not realise up until now but greatly appreciate it. The few unofficial APKs flying around online aren't optimized for specific phones.
Very nice, thanks for that (and your OS in general 🙂)

Je viens de parcourir quelques fils dans un #forum, celui de #FDroid, pour voir si je trouvais des choses pertinentes sur un sujet que je suis en train d'approfondir.

Bref, j'ai bien perdu mon temps, encore.
