Issue

It would be great if Revanced Manager is on f-droid.

Feature

Add Revanced Manager is on f-droid.

Motivation

F-droid is a convenient way to install FOSS apps to those without the Google Playstore, therefore I see a need for this.

Additional context

F-droid Website

Manager is still ln alpha and should not be available on any store fronts.

[rollingmoai]

Even though, this should not be closed until it is completed.

[Aunali321]

It will take some time to make the manager stable.

@Aunali321 may I ask what the current state is? I see a stable release was tagged in March, so maybe "now is the time"?

There is no stable release and there no plans to launch on f-droid yet.

Ah, then I misinterpreted the latest label on v0.0.57 (which is not marked pre-release).

Thanks for reopening btw – and we'll then wait for "things to come", wishing you the best progress!

There is no stable release

v0.0.57 wasn't tagged as pre-release
v1.0.0 got released some time ago
v1.2.0 removed the alpha disclaimer

why isn't it considered stable when it's indirectly communicated through these actions?

[Ushie]

At the time of the last comment, v0.0.57 was the latest release, which was still an Alpha

This issue has been reopened, there's nothing that's says v1.0.0 isn't a stable release, nobody here has said that, we just haven't had the time or interest exactly to release it to F-Droid

@IzzySoft Hey, do you know if we meet the official F-Droid repository's requirements? if so, is it too time consuming to release there?

[IzzySoft]

There is an open RFP, and the issuebot report there looks good. It just states that Fastlane structures are missing here in your app's repo (that's the way you maintain description and graphics to represent your app in the F-Droid catalog). Mind setting those up here? Be welcome to use my Fastlane Cheat Sheet for guidance. The minimum needed is creating /fastlane/metadata/android/en-US and adding hort_description.txtplusfull_description.txt` there – though I'd strongly recommend to also include a few screenshots and an icon (see the Cheat Sheet on where they should go).
