Shape4985What is your favourite/ most used FOSS android apps?
absGeekNZIt sucks that Syncthing is discontinuing its android app
It would be up near the top of my list.
Discontinuing syncthing-android
Unfortunately I don’t have good news on the state of the android app: I am retiring it. The last release on Github and F-Droid will happen with the December 2024 Syncthing version. Reason is a combination of Google making Play publishing something between hard and impossible and no active maintenance. The app saw no significant development for a long time and without Play releases I do no longer see enough benefit and/or have enough motivation to keep up the ongoing maintenance an app requires ...
OwlWHAT ??!!
How will I sync my password amnager database from now ?
DiggyDiggyMoleThere’s syncthing-fork that I hope will continue to be maintained (especially as they committed a guide on how to switch from the official app 2hrs ago). I’ve used it already before the depreciation of the official app and it’s working reliably.
It looks like Play Store releases are planned to be stopped, so it’s probably best to install it either directly from the GitHub releases (for this, Obtanium is also a great tool for finding and updating apps from lotta sources), or with F-Droid.
You (and especially the devs of syncthing-fork) are a life saver !
