F-Droid publish their own builds; part of their mission is to independently build and package the upstream from source to avoid risk of the upstream doing anything unpleasant.
- lukeramsden 6y agoCan they not automate that? That would probably put them _ahead_ of the Play Store
- codethief 6y agoIt's not their goal. They want to be able to check the source code and verify it does what the developers claim it does. The Matrix developers could, however, set up their own F-Droid repository and publish their own (automated) builds there.
- tom_mellior 6y agoGot it, thanks for the info. I donated 100 dollars via https://f-droid.org/en/donate/ https://f-droid.org/en/donate/ in the hope it helps them. Thank you and everyone working on Element and Matrix as well!
