Great to see an increasing number of nostr-signed apps on the relay! We also slowly keep adding more indexed apps and will soon re-enable the ability for anyone to add. In parallel working on lots of code for the new product vision of Zapstore v2, can't wait to share more. On the app side, ironing out last bugs for a new release. This week we'll have 1.1.0 if all goes well.

I've been silent lately, very busy cookin' the next gen of Zapstore. Major building blocks to something that makes even more sense in the world of Android apps, and among many other things making it even simpler for developers to publish. More soon!

Signal started marking their releases as "pre-release" on Github:

GitHub

Releases · signalapp/Signal-Android

A private messenger for Android. Contribute to signalapp/Signal-Android development by creating an account on GitHub.

Reason why those are not showing up as latest on Zapstore. We used to fetch pre-releases, at that time a Termux pre-release screwed up lots of setups. Pulling pre-releases then needs to be evaluated on a per-project basis, this is hard.

Current estimate of active Android smartphone users worldwide: 3.9 billion About 5 million use custom ROMs (LineageOS, GrapheneOS, crDroid and others) That is 0.13% 🤯

Dear @GrapheneOS, does an app store where users choose their curators (essential for censorship-resistance) violate your security model? 👀 > App stores are supposed to be a single source of apps. You should look at the device management APIs where app stores must be a single source of apps in order to be permitted when disallowing unknown app sources and only permitting first party or specific known app sources.
