And now where is exactly the difference to F-Droid?
The FOSS store f-droid also allows to add custom apt-like repositories, which for example CopperheadOS used to add a non-sanctioned patched version of the "signal" app. Moxie doesnt want forks of signal that are also using signal's servers. CopperheadOS did it anyway because signal is not compatible without Google Apps installed (removing google cloud messaging because CopperHeadOS doesnt include Google play services).
- wedlled 8y agoAs per their 'About page' no difference: "The original F-Droid client app was based on the Aptoide app developed by Roberto Jacinto." F-Droid is a fork of the original Aptoide project, it seems.
- ptx 8y agoIt was forked in 2010, so the the differences after 8 years of separate development are probably quite significant. (But both clients let you add third-party repositories, so in that regard there is no difference.)
