It really isn't. While the requirements are less strict than for the main repo, there is a review process to add a new app and I think they also have some automated checks. Additionally, Izzy (the maintainer of izzyondroid) is (was?) a member of the fdroid team.

Does this mean that every app there is legitimate? Of course not, but the same can be said about any other app store/repository.

Unlike Osmand itself, the Osmand Tracker app is not open-source. While that's not a quality the OP asked for, I think it is important to note in this context.

Also, I found that Osmand Tracker drains your battery like crazy, but ymmv.

That's cool… but what really pissed me off about the default camera app on the FP4, is that the "show in gallery" feature is completely broken if you disable Google photos.

EDIT: Holy shit, they fixed it. I can't believe it!

Yes it does, but it is not part of nextcloud itself, they require you to host a collabora CODE server. It works quite well but it's a bit of a hassle to set up

I think what you're referring to is the Mozilla UnifiedNLP backend, which is also affected by the removal of UnifiedNLP.

I don't think there is another way to offer this API to the system.

Apps could of course use the Mozilla location services directly, but that requires some sensitive permissions most apps would not need otherwise.

I don't disagree with you but I think these kinds of posts are just the result of mastodon federating with Lemmy. That would explain the very different style of post. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

You can actually try kagi for free. 100 searches/month should be enough for you to decide if it's worth the money to you.

The website works for me and seems legit (looks like a regular uni website...). It reads:

JAP (called JonDo in the scope of the commercial JonDonym anonymous proxy servers - AN.ON remains free of charge) makes it possible to surf the internet anonymously and unobservably.

Without Anonymization, every computer in the internet communicates using a traceable Address. That means:

• the website visited,
• the internet service provider (ISP),
• and any eavesdropper on the internet connection

can determine which websites the user of a specific computer visits. Even the information which the user calls up can be intercepted and seen if encryption is not used. JAP uses a single static address which is shared by many JAP users. That way neither the visited website, nor an eavesdropper can determine which user visited which website. How it works

Instead of connecting directly to a webserver, users take a detour, connecting with encryption through several intermediaries, so-called Mixes. JAP uses a predetermined sequence for the mixes. Such a sequence of linked mixes is called a Mix Cascade. Users can choose between different mix cascades.

Since many users use these intermediaries at the same time, the internet connection of any one single user is hidden among the connections of all the other users. No one, not anyone from outside, not any of the other users, not even the provider of the intermediary service can determine which connection belongs to which user. A relationship between a connection and its user could only be determined if all intermediaries worked together to sabotage the anonymization. more...

The intermediaries (mix providers) are generally provided by independent institutions which officially declare, that they do not keep connection log files or exchange such data with other mix providers. JAP shows the identity and number of organisations in each Mix cascade in detail, and verifies this information by cryptographic means. The users are thus able to selectively choose trustable mix cascades.

Seems like a fun research project. But not sure how much I would personally trust it.

Also, no idea about the app but at least the project seems legit.

Das stimmt, aber je nach KV kann es sein dass nicht alle Gehälter (IST Gehälter), sondern nur die Mindestgehälter erhöht werden. Das heißt dass im Normalfall alle, die mehr als das Minimum verdienen, leer ausgehen. Hab ich auch lang nicht gewusst.

Bei IT ist das zb so, und bei Consulting offenbar auch.

I reported this bug here: https://codeberg.org/Bazsalanszky/Eternity/issues/234

Rainbowdragoneyes makes good chiptune music (no fusion). Very underappreciated, it feels like.

Unless the app allows you to export/import your settings, unfortunately the answer is no.

This is because F-Droid builds its own installers and signs them with their own key. Android (sensibly) does not allow upgrading a package if the signing key is not the same.
