Accrescent Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to frequently asked questions about Accrescent.Accrescent
@accrescent Sounds great. I am looking forward to it. Thanks for #Accrescent and contributing to the #FLOSS community. I greatly appreciate that.
Adding an info whether an app is FLOSS is helpful.
While I appreciate bringing up the security concerns the existence of alternatives to #FDroid I do not think we have those when it comes to pure FOSS apps without the usual big corporate trackers/libs. #Accrescent lists a few apps and fails to provide relevant information about them (such as requested permissions). E.g. #Qlango includes multiple tracking libraries by #Meta / #Facebook and doesn't look like it is FOSS to any degree. Even while the #FDroid repo is not carefully curated I don't run into traps like these. 🤷
There is a need for a curated and maintained FOSS app repo and currently there is nobody but @fdroidorg providing it. #Obtainium, #Accrescent are mostly option for expert users who exactly know who to trust and what they are looking for. @Kulei @newhinton
#Accrescent IMO absolutely needs
- better description of app
- permissions list
- license info of app
- download size of apk
- website link if available
- (minimum Android sdk)
