Sure that is the work around that guardian did for signal. It’s just a passion because everyone needs to add that repo manually. Very free people are going to bother with that additional friction if they even know it’s there

As a Android developer who has an app in the Play store as well as in f-droid, I’ll be the first to say that the f-droid people make it an absolute pain to put things there. I’ve almost stopped pushing there because of how annoying it is. My app went 3 months without being updated there because of how they manage things. They are way way way way. Way too frustrating to deal with.

So yeah I’m not surprised. A lot of stuff is not there. I support the concept and it was my main goal to put it there, but they have radically changed my opinion about using it and anyone who refuses to use an app because it’s not there. Should try publish in there sometime
