Remove SimpleMobileTools apps #345

Closed shuvashish76 closed 11 months ago

shuvashish76 commented 11 months ago

https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/General-Discussion/issues/241 For now F-Droid versions are unaffected by this. We will remove all SMT apps from the list once they make them proprietary/no updates or if F-Droid archive them. This issue is just an information to "Android FOSS" followers.

Thanks sharing the news @shuvashish76.

Not a good direction, but it seems there's already a fork community establishing: https://github.com/SimpleMobileTools/General-Discussion/issues/241#issuecomment-1837464578 (with a new home at https://github.com/FossifyX).

Let's cross fingers :crossed_fingers:.

I have updated the title, as not everyone might know the SMT abbreviation.

@offa the fork was renamed, please update the link to https://github.com/FossifyOrg

I have removed all SimpleMobileTools entries. At this point it's no longer worth recommending and people should rather stay away from them.

Additionally a new task to add FossifyOrg projects once ready (#346).
