Publish application on F-Droid #12

Open yannjor opened 2 years ago

yannjor commented 2 years ago

Now that the app is open source, it would be nice to make it available on F-Droid, the platform for FOSS apps.

Even tho I get the idea, I don't see the benefit of that. The target audience of the app isn't on FDroid, and I think that will be too much of a distraction for little to no benefit.

yannjor commented 2 years ago

That may be. I don't have any experience publishing to F-Droid, but if it isn't too much trouble I think it would still be worth it.

@TheMintest I'm totally the target audience and would love to see it published on f-droid @yannjor :+1:

I don't see the benefit of that. The target audience of the app isn't on FDroid, It's a condescending dishonest judgment without any figures.

There are many users using F-Droid. If I read the propaganda you have in the press, you want to bring politics to all so as to fight against abstention an make people interested to election.

So deal with it: put your app on F-Droid. It' a kind of duty of mobile developper.

If you don't care about that, change your mind or change your job.

Disclaimer: Like @tarbib I am that kind of users.

I took the liberty of submitting the app to F-Droid's requests for packaging issue tracker: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/rfp/-/issues/2000.
