I was able to find this comment from last year about starting the process to add Summit to F-droid. Just curious if there’s been any updates on that front?

Whoops. I didn’t refresh so I missed this comment. Just fixed the issues they had and re-submitted my application to f-droid. Hope it gets through now.
Hi, just saw the warning flag your app got on fdroid. What’s the app stats being reported to your server?
The stats aren’t from the app. They are from lemmy itself. Also the flag has been removed. It was added due to a misunderstanding. I assume the warning will disappear on the next release of the app.
To give a bit more context, Summit’s server aggregates stats about Lemmy as a whole and serves these stats back to the app. Technically this can be done by the app but then each user would be hammering various servers and also the data is large. There will be a way to not use the server in the next update. The stats are only used for the search page.
Thanks, I appreciate the explanation. I’ll be testing your app on the next release then!
