Fossify Gallery (fork of Simple Gallery), Fossify File Manager (fork of Simple File Manager) and Fossify Calendar (fork of Simple Calendar) are now available for download on F-Droid.
(Simple Mobile Tools suite was acquired by an Israeli adware company)
About Fossify: Fossify is all about community-backed, open-source, and ad-free mobile apps. A fork of the SimpleMobileTools, which is no longer maintained, and we’re here to continue the legacy, bringing simple and private tech to everyone.
I wonder what they think will happen. j feel like smt is only good because its Foss. if I don’t care about Foss, trackers, etc, google s product suite is much better, more feature rich.the only reason I use smt is because its Foss. I’d love to be able to use google messages, with RCS, and whatnot, but trackers and google prevent me from doing so. I feel like by doing this they’re killing it
They’re hoping that the current install base will be too lazy to remove their malware.
lol I think people who use fdroid sent the kind of people to keep known malware
but yea maybe ¯_ (ツ) _/¯
