For the download links, should we also put the DivestOS repo? As you will get faster updates with it, for example.

@rollsicecream have a citation for that claim? I don't see any recommendations to do that in any official documentation.

rollsicecream · 2024-03-31T10:50:12Z

I don't have a direct citation, but in general updates from apps in the F-Droid official repo fall behind most of the time, NewPipe, for example, does have their own repo where they explicitly state that :

If you install NewPipe via the default F-Droid repo, updates for NewPipe might take their time to arrive for you.

Also, for a more IRL example, the Mullvad VPN app on F-Droid had fallen behind updates (between 2023.9 and 2023.10) for 2 weeks or so, I even had to make an issue for that.

SkewedZeppelin · 2024-03-31T12:50:24Z

Yes, updates on divestos.org are same day, updates on F-Droid.org can take 1-3 days to merge, and another 2-5 to even compile/ship.

https://divestos.org/pages/our_apps

Many are also available in the official F-Droid repository, but may take a few days longer to receive updates.

I maintain both Mull and Fennec F-Droid in fdroiddata to be clear, so I send the MR immediately after release.

edit 1:

such as replacing some Google Play Services references.

there are zero proprietary blobs in Mull & Fennec F-Droid.

edit 2:
you can see this clearly here, last update took 6 days:

March 22nd https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-/merge_requests/14737
March 28th: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/us.spotco.fennec_dos/

+**Mull** is a privacy oriented and deblobbed Android browser based on Firefox. Compared to Firefox, it offers much greater fingerprinting protection out of the box, and disables JavaScript Just-in-Time (JIT) compilation for enhanced security. It also removes all proprietary elements from Firefox, such as replacing Google Play Services references.


Would it be worth explaining the term deblobbed to users who might not know what it means?

I think we'll hold off for now, and it will be a good candidate for the upcoming glossary (#2451 (comment))

freddy-m

LGTM unless we want to clarfiy what 'deblobbed' means as it might not be a term all readers are familiar with
