  • This article seems like a lot of FUD written from an anti-FOSS perspective. In their second point, they say that F-droid’s inclusion policy is “ridiculous” for requiring programs exclude proprietary software. I think the author is ridiculous for asking for this. This is what F-droid is for. I don’t want any proprietary apps or libraries on my phone. If developers only want to work on their proprietary software, they don’t get into F-droid. If they make a modified FOSS version and put it in F-droid, and let it bitrot and go unpatched when vulnerabilities are discovered, and F-droid issues a security advisory for that program, that’s not F-droid’s fault.
