Suggestion - F-Droid store #66

Open xMate420x opened 5 years ago

It would be nice if this app would be available from the F-Droid store

dc297 commented 5 years ago

Hey, Nice idea.

However, the F-Droid store has certain requirements that the app doesn't meet. For now, it is not possible for me to make the changes so that the app meets the requirements of F-Droid store.

Cheers! Deepesh

What changes should the app have?

dc297 commented 5 years ago

This is their inclusion policy - https://f-droid.org/en/docs/Inclusion_Policy/

First, I will have to make sure that all the dependencies are FOSS. Then, I'll have to change the Ads Provider and the Donation mechanism.

Cheers! Deepesh

You could just add a donate button and disable ads, like most apps on F-Droid do, so its fully FOSS for F-Droid users without anti-features.

I would also need to recompile all the libraries I have used from source which would be a pain 😅

Would love if someone could help with this.
