That's a very good point! Although, would it not be trivial to setup a 3rd-party F-Droid-compatible repo that just distributes CI/CD artifacts (eg. Github releases) by subscribing to a RSS feed? I personally wouldn't do it for the reasons you mentioned, but it could certainly be useful for some people.
- kuschku 5y agoIt's easily possible, and many people already do it. e.g. Quasseldroid is available via https://repo.kuschku.de/fdroid/repo/?fingerprint=A0CBC2C29E38ED9542F86A1188412A60C5A756FC4D7A31C4C622242D7AD021F2 https://repo.kuschku.de/fdroid/repo/?fingerprint=A0CBC2C29E3... a custom repo generated from the same CI builds that also get pushed to Google Play.
- southerntofu 5y agoAh yes, but this requires adding one repo per app. I meant having a "single" (though selfhostable) Fdroid gateway to CI artifacts so i could just add "cidroid.org" repository to my Fdroid then choose for each application if i want it from F-droid repo or from fresher CIDroid.
- kuschku 5y agoIt's pretty much the same as PPAs on Ubuntu. For what you're asking for, IzzyDroid's repo may be the closest to what you're asking for.
- southerntofu 5y agoThanks i was not aware of this! It's almost exactly what i was looking for, although admittedly i wanted something more automated (along the lines of here's an RSS feed of releases, use this xpath query to extract the download URLs for various architectures).
