fedilab

Hmmm, why is Malwarebytes' most recent threat database flagging the Fedilabs app as a threat? @apps #fedilab #app

For #Fedilab, I first check the crash reports I get by email, and what Marco has prioritized from user feedback.
I would like to add #FediHood support, but Fedilab still has urgent bugs to fix first. It is planned though.

#Fedilab 3.43.2 has been published.

This release fixes several crashes and memory issues, keeps drafts when the app restarts or the theme changes, and improves the timeline position when coming back.

Full release notes: https://codeberg.org/tom79/Fedilab/releases/tag/3.43.2

I only keep my Google dev account for #Fedilab.
You can also get it through #FDroid or the APKs I publish.
If you use https://fdroid.fedilab.app you get updates immediately.

Should I keep publishing Google releases?

My favorite Mastodon app, Fedilab, is no longer on Google Play, but you can still get it from F-Droid.

You can import your old settings, too. It's easy and only takes a few minutes. I'm not an experienced F-Droid user, but everything went smoothly...

Thanks for the great work! @apps

Getting push notifications with the #FDroid app can be a deal breaker. I will work to make everything smooth in the next release by hosting my own NTFY instance and simplifying the process with #Fedilab, even making it transparent.

I would like to thank you all for respecting my choice to leave the Google Store. Seeing messages from people joining #FDroid to get the app and sharing their experience with a lot of good feedback made me very happy. What I read most often: F-Droid is easy to use, and the export/import feature works well with #Fedilab.

For push notifications, I recommend using #SunUp

Dropping the Google version of the app was a pleasure. I could finally remove all their restrictions:

- Register an account with #Fedilab
- Donation links
- Hard-coded filters for #PeerTube containing "download" and "YouTube"

The APK that I attach to release notes is signed with the same key, so Play users can install it over their current version.

I know Google is the best way to be known, but it has a price I am no longer willing to pay.

I spent a lot of time fixing bugs in #Fedilab, but what features are you missing the most?
