![]() ![]() Maybe I have more sympathy for open source developers, but I think it's getting increasingly difficult for them to compete with the commercial apps that are "free" (with data mining), or are paid. ![]() Not really sure if I would agree this is a dark pattern as such - I've seen far worse store listings that don't call out "pro" features until you start using the app, and discover 90% of the advertised features are paid. ![]() See below for a list of pro features.", and there's a full list of pro feaatures lower down the description. The 5th line of the description says "Almost all features are free to use, but to maintain and support the app in the long term, not every feature can be for free. Not really sure how much more the developer could do here to make it clear - the app description states it contains in-app purchases (at the top). Just state it upfront and I will consider it. > Nah man.don't do that if you actually want to sell a pro version. ![]() I think there are some very minor differences between the F-Droid build and the regular (open source) build when it comes to OAuth API keys - centralised mail providers often don't agree to the keys being used in those builds made by third parties. > Tried to install it from F-Droid, didn't work.ĭevelopers get very little say in what version F-Droid builds and ships. I sympathise a lot with the developer here. ![]()
