I wonder why the F-Droid version hasn't been updated in almost a year.. The Google play version is from 2 weeks ago.

I would expect for the privacy conscious community that F-Droid would be a big plus?



Hi, I'm the creator of Manyverse. We definitely want to be on F-Droid, the reason it's not there at the moment is merely technical. Manyverse is a beast to compile on F-Droid servers, requires compiling Node.js (Mobile) from scratch, compiling several Rust dependencies, C++ dependencies, and it's a React Native project (which comes with its own headaches). Some while ago the build broke and I've been pouring hours into it trying to bring the build back, but it's killing me. Sorry for the inconvenience


Personally. Yes. Fdroid is a plus. And it's especially annoying seeing it abonded without any explanation.
