What about F-Droid? Anyone downloading apps from there can likely cope with a clearly labeled beta version. Or you could set up your own F-Droid repo for beta versions.
Also, what about Mobile GNU distros like Mobian, postmarketOS, etc? Will there be a version of the loops app for them?

I saw @yivi_privacybydesign in #Fdroid the other day and it's got me interested!
By using free IBM research "Idemix" (Identity Mixer) it allows selective data transfer, including zero-knowledge proofs (e.g. that you are over 18 without revealing age.)
Data storage is local only. Initial app development from Radboud Uni Nijmegen, a foundation now owns the brand, and a company continues development...
What say ye fedi?
@PC_Fluesterer @kuketzblog @raanhacht Ob man es Big Tech nennt oder nicht ist mir egal. Was mich an Signal stört ist deren offene Verachtung gegenüber der klassischen freien Software Bewegung und Signals Weigerung zum Beispiel F-Droid oder UnifiedPush zu unterstützen. Der Chefin ~$1m im Jahr zu zahlen hat für eine angebliche non profit Organisation auch ein Gschmäckle.
@daniel @PC_Fluesterer @kuketzblog @raanhacht Was meinst Du mit „Weigerung, F-Droid zu unterstützen“, denn Signal gibts doch über #fdroid via Guardian Project?
3.36.0 is already live on Google Play!
#Fedilab 3.36.0 is out! Lots of changes. Release notes: https://codeberg.org/tom79/Fedilab/releases/tag/3.36.0
For #FDroid users who don't use our repo, please expect a few days.
NewPipe 0.28.2 has recently come out. Any fedi-friend knows how long it might typically take for the new version to be picked up by F-Droid? As I'm writing this, F-Droid is still on 0.28.1.
0.28.2 should fix an annoying bug ("Content no available" error) hence my interest. I know I can install the apk directly or via NewPipe's repo but I'd be curious to know re F-Droid.
