“nel0x” has announced to continue publishing on the play store. I welcome his help and the work I think he’ll put into his mission. It’s up to you, reading this, to decide if to trust and/or support him or go with the F-Droid release channel of this app instead. You don’t know me and I don’t know him… we are all volunteers in the spirit of open source.
For additional info about not releasing anymore on play store from Catfriend1 :
ah, so both are legit. thanks.
The announcement literal purpose is to tell you the author does not know if its legit or not and that you should decide for yourself.
