Current description

Simple (product) is a good FOSS, lightweight replacement for system default, https://f-droid.org/en/packages/(package-link)

The current description contains recommending certain apps from 'Simple-Mobile-Tools'. But as of 2024, sadly the company behind this suite of applications has been bought by an Ad-company. Here are some related articles 1, 2, 3.

Which would mean we can no longer proudly recommend these applications to our privacy-focused user-base.

Proposed description

Either remove these recommendations, or replace them with better ones like 'Unexpected Keyboard', 'LeafPic-Revived'.
