Solstice: a fake of ArchiveTune?

Hello,
I don’t know if you’re aware, but it seems someone is trying to copy the ArchiveTune project quite blatantly.
Although no app has been released online yet, its developer hasn’t gone to much trouble and seems to have simply copied and pasted your project page…
I thought I’d let you know in advance as the page isn’t finalised yet. I’m a bit baffled by this, and I doubt what he’s planning to do is entirely legal.
It’s called “Solstice”; here’s the link to the repository: https://github.com/SolsticeMusicApp/Solsticesssss
If what he’s up to seems illegal to you, don’t hesitate to call him to order.
Kind regards

The repo write in readme that the project is ArchiveTune fork and comply with GPL3, so I think it's okay. Also the repo creator mentioned about his fork on ArchiveTune Telegram GC

All right. Thank you for clarifying that. I was a bit sceptical when I first saw the project.

yah, I am that repo owner and i forked it, and it is currently in developement that's why there no release or any apk file as i want a custom feature ( to chat with users with privacy ( matrix ) ) so i am integrating it with archivetune and renamed ti Solstice , it may take time till now it like i haven't made any major changes and all code may look identical to archivetune, since i am alone addin that. and i also stated that this is fork of ArchiveTune

Understood, and thanks a lot for that clarification.
Even though the presentation page is similar to ArchiveTune's, I realize that it will likely evolve over time as you add new features.
Good luck with the development of your application. 👍
