Like i use an older version of android and every new app on fdroid works for me and keeping the main repo full of abandonware isn’t a good idea and will hold fdroid back on being a good app store . And its not like the apps are deleted or anything if someone needs them for whatever reason they can find it on archive and not everyone have to load it all when using the main repo which is better for users and those who host mirrors as most of do use the newer apps instead of abandonware and Is there a specific reason they do this ?
I asked this on their IRC but i didn’t get any reply and then i got logged out and IRC doesn’t show previous chats is there any way to get in touch with them as i think doing this will benefit everyone . I don’t have much experience using gitlab and i don’t think that is the place to discuss things like that . Also if anyone could get in touch with them about this and keep me updated that’ll be appreciated as i am trying to keep my internet accounts small and don’t wanna make a github or matrix acc solely for this so if anyone could help that’ll ve appreciated.
Yep lets look at games does GL TRON work for you ?
I picked the 1. in the list “1010! Klooni” last time was updated 4 years ago. Works fine and is actually kinda fun.
I was talking about fdroid and in there it was updated 9 years ago idk what you are talking about
The first game in the game list of fdroid alphabetically sorted.
Bruh i am talking about GL TRON what has this got to do with anything ??
Yes and i picked another game that was not updated in the last 4 years.
There are various other games that do work that are last updated like 6 years ago in the beginning of list and are just working on the newest android version.
It’s got to do with your whole post about old apps being removed.
Wow.
I got curious and yes, GL Tron works
What android ver are you running my brother in christ ?
Tbf I ran it on my old phone with Android 8.1. I’m sure many people have old, still working phones they want to use for stuff
And the archive isn’t goung anywhere
I’d never heard of GL TRON but I just installed it out of curiosity and it does seem to run fine. Android 13.
The fuckidy fuck ? When is the last update showing you on fdroid ??
It says it’s been updated 12 years ago apparently.
And it still works on android 13 ? How ??
Wow.
You ask this question and yet make this post.
Because you’re mistaken about how compatibility works
Oh yeah how does it not work on android 11 but works on android 13 i don’t think i am mistaken about compatibility maybe something else
Just to add another data point: just installed it on my phone running Android 12 and it works without any problems.
Love gltron. It’s a port of a linux game, so you can play on laptop too
Thanks for the game recommendation! I just had a lot of fun playing GL TRON on my Android 11 (crDroid 7.38) phone. I had to map the ‘menu’ function to the nav buttons to access the settings since modern Android doesn’t have a dedicated menu button anymore, but it runs great!
