The signs were in plain sight:

✅ having a dev funded to work on the Client
✅ our support of #NGI
✅ #FDroid being a key partner in #Mobifree
✅ splitting client functionality into libs
✅ wrestling with #targetsdk
✅ dipping our toes into #MaterialDesign

What do all these compound to? All revealed in https://f-droid.org/2025/04/29/mobifree-client-funding.html

@fdroidorg really excited to see this happen. Any reason why you wouldn't just adapt one of the already much better modern F-Droid clients as your own like Droid-ify or Neo Store? They already do most of what I would expect from a modern F-Droid client

@chris @fdroidorg it's currently the slickest one. I have ppretty much every type of app store I can find installed. Would love it if someone combined Obtanium and Aurora with Droid-ify

@liaizon @fdroidorg I've used Aurora for the non-fdroid stuff, but what is Obtanium?
