I’m pissed that I bought simple gallery pro because it respected my privacy, then because the dev sold his soul for a ton of money, it now rapes my privacy

F-Droid can help
Simple Mobile Tools got sold and probably will go the web extension way of scammers loading it up with malware to extract private info and sell it. Delete it now.
OP is searching for Fossify - the forked set of Simple’s projects. That’s the point of the post, I think.
Yup you’re correct, didn’t notice the search bar.
Quick question, I’ve been using F-droid for like Spottube, I assume I should seek out Spottube for any future updates now correct?
I dont know unfortunately
Just use F-droid to update.
Fdroid does not guarantee the software is malware free. You still need to be able to trust the developer.

Seriously? I have so many of their apps. I had no idea.
It was bought by zipoapps or so and they might release ad infested versions. Fossify is the fork of all simple mobile tools
Oh thank you! Looks like they’re easy to find on F-Droid, so this should be a fairly painless transition
That’s so annoying - I have a ton of their apps too!
Looks like I’ll be staying on these ancient F-Droid versions for a while until a replacement shows up… but ugh I am so annoyed. Files, Draw, and the gallery in particular that allowed you to resize (strips EXIF data), crop and do all sorts was so handy
Fossify Gallery and Files are already up on F-Droid!
This is perfect, also seems like some bugs present in one of the original apps has been fixed in the Fossify version - thank you for sharing!
Might you be able to post a Link to the F-droid version? I can’t seem to find it there by simple search…
Just use the fork
Yes but the reason I purchased from play store (which has the side effect of donating an undeserved 30% to google) was that I could easily share the access with the family without too much effort, just send a link to them 😢
I believe, Fossify Gallery has practically the same features as Simple Gallery Pro. So, your family does still get full access with just the F-Droid link…
