Why would I spend any time building a centralized repo for fdroid when we have Zapstore and Obtainium? Every second working and maintaining these other things is a second less developing Amethyst.

What about just not promoting play store on webpages or anything?
We don't even talk about it. I always say zapstore first.
Zapstore is not compatible with my phone. So it's Obtainium or Play Store for me...
Wouldnโt it be easier to fix the tor build to make it reproducible? (if that is the problem)
Apparently many devs gave tried. It does look hard to make Tor and all their libs reproducible.
Are the builds for amethyst already currently reproducable themselves?
Almost, the Tor libs break our reproducibility
Well that sucks. Is there anyway to decouple? Any chance you have some links to this issue with the tor libs? Its something I'd like to read up on
Waiy i think i just caught up on the issue. Is it basically because youre not buikding and signing your own versuon of the tor aar so the dependency on their signed version breaks it?
Have you considered Accrescent? This store is bundled with Graphene OS, could be a nice complement to Zap Store
I found the tor-android issue with reproducible builds ans submitted a pr. Hopefully i can get this fixed for you in the next month or so if the contributors monitor it.
