Compilation error: cannot find symbol ServiceEntity

I followed the README steps and cloned the repo & its submodules. When trying to build the app (either with the UI or with gradelw) it fails to compile:

ping cc @tasn I'm still unable to compile the project

Figured it out: Needed to change the gradle settings to use Java 8 to compile the app, not JDK 11

Oh sorry, I missed it! Great to see you solved it. Anything we should update in the repo? It builds on f-droid so I assume it's OK in general.
