Simple Mobile apps have been very popular among FOSS enthusiasts. I’ve personally been using the Gallery, Contacts and the Phone app since a few years now. It’s a shame that it has come to this, will be on the lookout for their forks.

    That would be a terrible precedent…

    Oh we’ll just “cleanly” (silently) update to a different fork by a different dev.

    Thats exactly what we are trying to avoid google play “cleanly” updating our apps to the new, spyware apps

      Agreed

      F-Droid should halt updates if app stops being FOSS (which F-Droid is all about) and then introduce the most popular fork as a standalone app.
