The v13 release is not just a release either, it is also our official announcement of participation in the annual #hacktoberfest. 💻🥨
We know that we're a few days late to the party, but v13 had to get ready before. 😉
This year, the fest is opt-in for projects and we definitely want to opt into taking part in this great event! If you ever thought about starting coding or giving back to your favourite open source repositories, now is the time! Head over to the hacktoberfest website to learn more about it.
We already prepared some issues on our repositories and aim towards opening more issues for starters, but feel free to begin a hunt for improvements and fixes by yourself!
[email protected] - Drizzle in my repo today with 2 new apps. Most prominently:
Watomatic – to help those of you still stuck at WhatsApp to leave that s(t)inking ship without being afraid "nobody can find you": it sends auto-responses to everyone writing you, telling them you've left and where to look. So: no more excuses, here's your door! https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.parishod.watomatic
Further running: SpaceXFollower (SpaceX events, facts, statistics) and Auxio, a nice music player, added yesterday.
Enjoy #foss#Android#apps with #fdroid!
[$] The exploitation paradox in open source
自由开源软件（FOSS）运动的核心是赋予个人和组织自由与权力，但其发展历程中，总存在试图利用FOSS谋取私利的参与者。在2026年比利时根特的配置管理营（CfgMgmtCamp）上，Richard Fontana阐述了开源的“剥削悖论”：即反复出现的危机模式，一些参与者利用规则漏洞来限制自由或在社区中获得对他人的优势。他还讨论了弥补这些漏洞的尝试，以及有必要超越许可证本身，以寻求维持自由的其他手段。
