So far I only see Gallery, File Manager, and Calendar on IzzyOnDroid. Hopefully SMS and Contacts will be added soon.

Wait what happened I am lost? Are they bad apps now?

A personal recommendation is to use Droidify, it's just a great F-droid front-end.

You can download the APK here: https://f-droid.org/packages/com.looker.droidify/

There are a bunch of those "simple" apps on F-droid, such as Simple Contacts, Simple Calendar, and Simple Camera. I cannot find Simple Gallery in F-droid any more, it seems to have been replaced by its Fossify equivalent already.

In light of this, it could be an idea to check if you have any of those apps installed and consider replacing them with an alternative. I was using Simple Contacts until now (only listed as "Contacts" in my apps), so I guess it's time to make some changes.

there are forks of code before the sellout and the releases are already out. use fdroid or obtainium. https://github.com/fossifyorg/

Fossify has many of them, Gallery, Files and Calendar (the main ones) are already on F-Droid!

• sms: deku sms, way better
• phone: GrapheneOSses AOSP dialer, dont know if you get that seperately, or Welefon
• music: so many alternatives, Vanilla Music is nice
• keyboard: florisboard, openboard
• phone: lol Pixel with GrapheneOS

Its sad that the community did not donate enough. People dont care...

Provided that the developer can either remove contributed code or seek copyright licences from every contributor it can be done. Whether this did happen or not is unclear, the developer appears a little arrogant about having written the majority of the code, showing little appreciation towards minor contributors. We cannot tell whether the contributors gave permission for their code to be re-licenced or if their code was removed.

Personally, when contributing to GPL projects I would expect that this kind of thing wouldn't be possible. Using the GPL is a very philosophical choice of licence and is a move to say that you really care about your users

the developer, and this isnt exaggeration, does not understand gpl v3. he literally got confused when people told him he had no right to sell contributed code. you can see for yourself in the github discussions

That was amazing. Someone linked to alibaba where you could buy the same 4? Year old phone for something like $120USD. Someone else dredged up a weird eastern European connection for the 'FOSS' OS. And they promised support, which ended when you bought the pos.

Oh, I see. They even stopped sponsoring Linux Mint, which is how I found SMT.

Edit: They used to be a gold sponsor: https://web.archive.org/web/20220201203412/https://linuxmint.com/sponsors.php
Which means $1,000/month.

You overestimate most peoples tech skills. They will never know because they have auto-updates activated.

1. You don't like the Google app
2. You don't want to use Google apps out of principle
3. You're using a version of Android where Google apps are not installed by default, so you need to install something

Default app sucks.

It seems F-droid won't accept the new versions, as the Suite has been acquired over a month ago and they haven't accepted any new versions, all Simple apps I've checked haven't been updated for 3-4 months; in fact, I can't find Simple Gallery there anymore at all.

The ads are probably against F-droid's TOS.
