Are they going to update it in the main f droid repo now ? Otherwise whatever .
Are you aware of Obtainium
Yes but i'm not interested as fdroid has many features that i like for ex: conforming the builds, inclusion policy, stopping updates if something is changed, removing proprietary builds etc obtainium is just a tool to make getting apps from git or anywhere else easy and not at all as safe ir useful as fdroid for me .
This is actually pretty based and reasonable, even though the trust issue is not solved but shifted. Take my upvote kind sir.
Thank you here take mine .
Edit : Hey i just rememebered that fdroid now lets devs also check the files they upload are the same that are pushed by the dev so the trust issue is kinda solved as now the dev and fdroid has to be corrupt instead of one and this is the maximum safety we can attain unless we read and built from the source of every app we use which no one do .
Out on Fdroid now and working
No it isn't .
Refresh your repos, I literally just downloaded and installed it
I did refresh . Also repos ? I was talkin about tge official fdroid repo .
Oops my apologies, lol I checked and I must have installed the upstream NewPipe repo so long ago that I forgot that I even had it in my sources list. Literally my only repo other than Fdroid main.
No reason not to use it, though, it's the official NewPipe repo:
