Just saying, nobody loves a pedant.
Looks like you're talking from personal experience based on your comment history, but I'm not being a pendant... I'm making a very simple correction. And I did so patiently. F-droid does not want their project to be conflated with 3rd party repos so people shouldn't do it. It's that fucking simple... I'm really not sure why this has been difficult to understand, nor why it required any further explanation, nor why it prompted personal attacks from insecure douchnozzles.
I apologize for douchenozzling up the thread. I actually appreciate the explanation as it was informative, but it is pedantic to focus on that instead of answering the original question.
The comment I replied to was about whether it would be released to f-droid, and when I read that, it sounds like someone is under the wrong impression on how f-droid works which is the reason I corrected them. Others also got that impression and corrected them.
For those that care about FOSS, the distinction is very important,... which makes it not pedantic for us.
Can't argue with that, was just trying to point out why people were reacting negatively is all.
