#FDroid seems to have decided not to ban #Fedilab.

"As long as Fedilab doesn’t actively promote the gab instance or, it being compatible with it, I see no reason how the app promotes any bigotry.

Neither does a web-browser because it doesn’t include a blocklist for alt-right websites."

"About Fedilab. As I stated earlier, we don’t think it is promoting any bigotry and in conflict with any of the proposed inclusion guidelines."

However they've made an ominous statement.

"While an antifeature doesn’t make sense, we do need to overhaul our inclusion guidelines. This means besides the requirement for fully free software, we need to think about what will not be tolerated inside the f-droid.org repository. This is not an easy thing to do and still a work in progress.

When we are done with that there will be people who won’t agree with our guidelines."

Talking about people being dissatisfied with the policy implies they're going to come down hard on one side or the other. Which side remains to be seen.

@hailstones @a @gab I'm wondering why exactly it seems you must rely so hard on Google's play store or the fdroid repo. Gab is unstoppable.
Can't you simply put an APK download on your frontpage with a sha sum?
