Voyager is best in iOS at it was heavily inspired by the ex-App Apollo.

Yeah it kind of shows. I'll just stick with Jerboa for now but that's not reflective of the apps quality
Is it safer than Sync for Lemmy? (tracking etc.)
Edit - seems to be based on what I've read.
404 on F-droid but works on Google Play Store.

Any app that is Foss is going to be way better in terms of privacy and freedom.
That's a little too wishful of a statement, freedom is guaranteed of course, but there is no rule that free software will be more private just by virtue of having its code be open. For instance many free apps will still include analytics (proprietary or not), it's not the case with this one luckily
With free (freedom) apps you can always manually remove what you don't like. If the developer or company dies or loses interest you can take over development (or your friend can)
Yes, you can do that, I just meant to say that privacy is not a given, no one stops from working towards it yourself
Man I was looking for it there earlier today but ended up getting it from the play store.
I guess it didn't help that I was searching for Eternity, not Voyager. What's the scoop with the name?
Edit: I'm confused. I guess they're different.
Eternity is available via the IzzyOnDroid F-Droid repo.
It's also available on play store now
I personally would avoid the IzzyOnDroid as it isn't well filtered and opens your device up to potential security and privacy issues
Been using Izzy apps for years. Never had a problem.
That's your choice. The problem is that many app developers are taking the lazy way out instead of proper F-droid.
Eternity used to be called Infinity, because that is what the FOSS Reddit client that it is forked from was called.
Voyager used to be called wefwef for god knows why
Two completely different projects.
Thanks. I didn't use them when they were Reddit apps, and the names are all so similar I got confused.
Reproducible buil?
👍 yes
