This Week in F-DroidTWIF curated on Thursday, 11 Dec 2025, Week 50F-Droid coreWe had great reach with our “F-Droid and Google’s Developer Registration Decree” post and its sequel, “What We Talk About When We Talk About Sideloading”, to raise awareness about the future of Android. But we hope we broke out of our tech-savvy bubble, so everyone hears about what the proposed changes entail, and how F-Droid’s goal, of freedom for all users, is truly the way forward.But if you didn’t read those yet, or you want an audio/video to go along, our own board member and writer, Marc Prud’hommeaux, recently had an 1 hour interview that covers it.While the interview is one month old by now, and Google announced some initial modifications to how this will presumably work, we still believe these are not enough and device owners need full control and freedom.The keepandroidopen.org site has all the info, a call to action and resources so you can make your voice heard.Community NewsWhich apps make your top trio?

The 39C3 Schedule app was updated to 1.73.0 so make sure to have it ready.ArcaneChat was updated to 2.33.0 to add some fixes and polish. But hidden there in plain site, there’s a boring change “New experimental feature: several addresses per profile” which sounds rather bland, what are profiles anyway? Well… this new option allows one to change the relay (read it as server) used to send and receive messages. This is a nice feature and you might need to read the guide to get the gist on how to switch them. Delta Chat will get updated soon too.FOSS Warn was updated to 1.0.1 and some issues were fixed for UnifiedPush integration, hence Conversations and forks like Cheogram or monocles chat can be used as distributors again.MediLog was updated to 3.5.0 and we also added MediLog (Reproducible build) signed by the developer.Thunderbird Beta for Testers was updated to 16.0b2 and the devs posted their monthly report with the bonus 40+ mins video.
