We regret to inform you that Mastodon has decided to leave the F-Droid Reproducible Builds project.

Going forward, Mastodon updates on F-Droid will be maintained by the F-Droid team and signed with an unique per-app key generated by F-Droid.

If you installed Mastodon through F-Droid, please uninstall and reinstall it to keep receiving updates.

That's unfortunate. I can understand if it was like this to begin with, but removing this after it was implemented is a bit iffy to me. I personally am changing my client to Tusky. Not because I fear that Mastodon will go proprietary, but mostly because I'll have relogin anyway, may as well try something else.

Fedilab is also very nice; if you are trying new apps anyway you might want to give it a try 🙂

Thanks for the suggestion! I'm already using Tusky now, but may try it out at some point in the future
