Shadow of the cycle - This Week in F-Droid 07 Aug 2025
I was bored, so #LineageOS happened. Which forced… gave me the opportunity to rethink some apps. A couple of highlights.
I returned to #GhostCommander, which wasn’t working well with older Androids (remember the Great SD Card Disaster?). It looks and behaves like an open-source version of #TotalCommander. If you don’t need SMB 1 support like I do, you should probably check out #MaterialFiles instead, It looks better.
You need #Obtainium. Or #FDroid, if you’re not cool. https://sites.google.com/site/ghostcommander1/
What a difficult decision I need to make...
I love my #GrapheneOS , it does everything it needs to, with simplicity.
Now, I must admit, my bank app refuses to scan #QRcode ("technical error") and I cannot make app purchases (because I chose to exclusively use #AuroraStore and #FDroid ).
Do I stay fully aligned with my principles ( #FuckBanks , #FuckGoogle ), principles that my #GrapheneOS helps me achieve, or do I play with a secondary profile to install a few "dirty apps" to not isolate myself even further?
Und wo wir grad bei #Apps sind... Kennt wer 'ne App: #OpenSource mit #Widget am besten, welche die aktuelle #Mondphase zeigt?
Die hier hat #FDroid aber die wird mir als inkompatibel gezeigt (außerdem hat die vom Alter wohl noch #Nostradamus selbst gecodet...)

Habe mir für den #Urlaub extra #BirdNet und #FloraIncognita installiert und es fetzt sehr hart damit Pflanzen und Vögels zu bestimmen (tut mir Leid [nicht], wenn das urst boomerig klingt...).
Geile #Apps! Schade bloß, dass beide bei #FDroid nicht am Start sind...

Entre el atontamiento que tengo después de la operación de reconstrucción, y que me cuesta mucho expresarme, me ha llevado más de lo que pensaba.
Pero ya tenéis disponible la entrada en mi blog donde explico cómo instalar F-Droid y NewPipe en una SmartTV, para poder ver los vídeos de Youtube sin tanta porquería.
Espero que os sea útil (si lo entendéis )

W przejętym od matki Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G wymieniłem w końcu ichnie MIUI na świeżego LineageOS i telefon wystartował jak rakieta. Jest szybciej i przyjemniej bez tego całego bloatu.
To pierwszy raz, kiedy przenosiłem się na „nowy” telefon od czasu rozpoczęcia intensywnego korzystania z aplikacji z F-Droid i muszę przyznać, że w momencie przenosin jest to trochę upierdliwe, bo musiałem ręcznie zainstalować tonę apek. Ale i tak warto.
#Moin. Kann mir wer mit guten #FDroid -#Android -#Apps -Kenntnissen helfen?
Ich habe einen #OpenTracks -#Track und #Osmand installiert. Aber #OpenTracksApp kann mir das nicht als #Karte ausgeben, weil angeblich keine App installiert sei, die die API unterstützt? Was kann ich tun?
Ich will den Track in #OsmandApp haben...

Hey @rabble, would you and your team at Nos.social be willing to help us get a range of Nostr apps packaged for @fdroid?

Also, what's your take on the Zap Store as an app distribution method?
I bought an Android digital clock app and have used it for years. It displays the time. I used it at night with dim red digits. It did all I needed. At least it did until tonight, when it started running bright ads on the bottom of the page.
F-Droid offers an app called "Just 24 Hours" which has no permissions needed and just shows the time.
I haven't used #KDEConnect for ages and had forgotten about it.
Then I wanted to control my laptop using my mobile like a TV remote and I remembered...
It is now even better than I remember. Awesome remove control of #Ubuntu #Gnome using my mobile.
#Linux is awesome - and - free!
Even better, the KDE Connect app is available on #FDroid.
EDIT: meant KDE Connect, oops, sorry.
As part of #FDroid announced #OTF funded work, we are doing a little research into #FLOSS #FOSS donations management best practices and preferences and want to hear from you!
