Implements support for waydroid in vso, this includes creating and deleting a waydroid container, as well as using fdroid repositories to install and search for applications.

This is huge! Just integrating F-Droid into their mix package manager is really badass.
Because the only good way to autoupdate the Android apps is from the PC host using
waydroid app install. But F-Droids release images are totally random and also not as secure as using the API. Having repo support is waaay better.yes vanilla os 2.0 is huge and it’s now on debian
Now add Obtainium
Eh, obtainium doesn’t verify signatures, it quite literally just scrapes sources.
When F-Droid builds direct from repo, signs and downloads to your phone, is it really that different from pulling the APK directly from the original repo?
It doesn’t sign it locally, it verifies the file you downloaded is already signed properly as it should be. This ensures the download isn’t broken but also that the app is from who they claim it is.
But they need that because they are not the source, right? I feel like I’m missing something. Developer makes app on say, GitHub, how is going through F-Droid more trustworthy than the source?
because obtainium gets many apps directly from F-Droid.org too, not just github
And for those downloads, it does no verification
Not on GitHub either, where signatures are often attached together with the APK.
Oh I follow now. Interesting. Perhaps this will become a PR if I ever have time.
Isnt that just a semi working feedreader for Github and other sources?
Does it also follow the rule to not allow closed source API? (Notification,Location,…)
No, it gives the user the choice to pull whichever versions they want.
I was curious about vanilla os but nows it’s gonna be based on Debian and everything else I’m hears I kinda wanna switch to it for at least a month
What was it before?
Ubuntu based
This is a good change
Currently, been using it for the past year for work & school studies. Haven’t had any big issues and far less when I used windows. Waiting for the Alpha to go to beta
Will they update GNOME like Ubuntu or will they wait for Debian to do it?
In the road map they said they have gnome 44 for vanilla os 2.0
Damn, it would be impressive if they accomplish that
