Isn't everybody using Droid-ify anyway?
I just use Neo Store. The best F-Droid client ever.
Change my mind.
I've just been rawdoggin it with the OG f-droid app
mines been on no updates for years after they removed the ability to downgrade apps inexplicably.
Yes, but now I want a comparison of F-droid 2 vs Droid-ify.
I get pretty much everything through obtainium
I'm using F-Droid Basic.
No. Team neo store represent
+1 for neo store. I wonder if the new f-droid overhaul catches up as neo is pretty fantastic.
Edit, just looked at the screenshots, looks better than before but I'll stick with neo.
Does Neo Store have a way to make apps only use the official F-Droid repo for updates unless you downloaded them from a different one? Because it seems to just want to update from any repo, so I ended up splitting F-Droid Basic for official F-Droid apps and Neo Store for IzzyOnDroid and other third party repos.
Yeah, if you manually select it in the app releases section. Of course, the thing is that it's only per app.
Anyways, I prefer IzzyOnDroid because imho they have a better reproducible builds system.
Neo Store also allows you to review the reproducible builds' status for every app, and also its download statistics (total and per repo).
Also you can now maintain a local blocklist of apps you don't want or like to see. It's pretty neat.
Haven't noticed it doing that, maybe they fixed it? There was a new release a few days ago
Honestly the new ui is nice enough I may be switching back to the official F-droid app.
We'll see where I stay. I love the simplicity of droid-ify but sometimes have some issues with minor jank
That was the reason I switched back to F-Droid. Had serious problems with updating and stuff, no problems with F-Droid so far. I don't use it that much anyways, most of my apps are already installed. When searching for new apps F-Droid has a big category selection which is nice.
I've mostly been happy to just put up with the jank but if I get a nice interface without any I won't complain :)
Plus it feels nice for the f-droid projects own app to be in a good state and I'm excited for that ☺️
I love that I've never heard of Droidify. Open source offers a buffet of alternatives.
Foxy Droid here.
First I've heard of it tbh. I'll check it out, thankyou
Yup
