Happy Programmer's Day and waiting for my CPU

TWIF curated on Friday, 24 Oct 2025, Week 43
F-Droid core
Our website runs on a pretty standard software stack, all from Debian as expected. Yet we are not rewriting it every 7 months in a new shiny framework, but we aim for simplicity, maintainability and stability. While we encourage users to use the F-Droid Client to get timely updates and info on new apps, we know that the website is the point-of-entry for both new and old users. In the past year or so, we’ve also expanded our Categories to simplify discoverability and not have some with 500 apps that aren’t really helpful.
We’ve been bugged by an issue with categories for years now, as the number of apps grew bigger, a category app list was paginated, but pages 2 and later were not rendered correctly, missing the app icon and summary. Thanks to @Ray c for finally tracking a possible fix as others were affected too, so now all categories pages render correctly.
Community News
ArcaneChat and Delta Chat were updated to 2.20.0 and added experimental built-in calls? Interesting, did you test already? Looks like Webxdc proves to be more and more useful.
We skipped some versions, due to technical issues, but Catima — Loyalty Card Wallet was updated this week to 2.39.1. What did we miss? Non-archived cards widget, support for .pkpasses files, it now targets Android 16, features a new crash reporter to help the developer fix issues faster and more.
DOOM & Wolfenstein RPG released its last update on F-Droid. Starting from the next version, it will switch to doom64 ex+, which is using proprietary fmod.
DumDum, another proxy client, joined our family of VPN and proxy apps on F-Droid with reproducible builds. This is also based on a fork of the old SagerNet while designed to be minimalistic and only supports SOCKS/HTTP/HTTPS proxies.
Fennec F-Droid was updated to 144.0.0, raising the Minimum Android Version to 8.0 (Oreo). Mozilla also dropped the support for 32-bit x86 devices, but we will still try to build it anyway in our next cycles.
@shuvashish76 modernizes passwords:
KeePassDX - Pass(key/word) Vault was updated to 4.2.0 adding Passkeys support. What is Passkeys? Why Passkeys? The app Wiki has all the answers.
@Tobias_Groza glazes a virtual cake:
NewPipe celebrated 10 years last month and it’s time for a fancy post. Looking back, looking now and looking forward, you might end up going through all sorts of emotions. For now, read and rejoice but also be weary of things to come.
Removed Apps
2 apps were removed
- WebCall, WebCall P2P E2EE Telephony, as the developer stopped offering the service (Albeit you could host your own and edit the URL)
- WG Tunnel, A WireGuard & AmneziaWG VPN client with auto-tunneling, lockdown & proxying, as the developer requested it. (Rethink: DNS + Firewall + VPN, Exclave and sing-box can connect to WireGuard and one other app might be coming soon)
Newly Added Apps
7 more apps were newly added
- Anx Reader: A thoughtfully crafted e-book reader for book lovers
- Eblan Launcher: Android Launcher made from scratch using Kotlin, Coroutines and Jetpack Compose
- Hacker’s Diet Offline: This is an offline version of the Hackers Diet Online
