We've been working diligently to get #FDroid Client ready for release.

If naming our releases 'alpha' or 'rc' impeded you to update, now you are free to install.

As usual we are exercising this as a stage roll-out, so you can now expand Versions and install 2.0.

If it's the first time, or even the n-th time, you've heard about our new client work, you can read all the gritty details in the 15 mins post: https://f-droid.org/2026/09/24/f-droid-2.0-a-new-chapter-for-android-freedom.html

To everyone involved in delivering 2.0, a sincere "Thank You!"

Fair use is not a loophole in copyright. It is a core principle that helps creativity, education, and culture thrive. ⚖️📖

In RECLAIMING FAIR USE, copyright scholars Patricia Aufderheide & Peter Jaszi explain how understanding copyright's balance make it easier for creators, educators, librarians, and researchers to confidently use their rights. ✍️🏛️

We urge the @EUCommission to scrutinise Apple's announcement closely and reject it as non-compliant with the #DMA.

These concerns were already raised in a complaint to the European Commission filed by @Freiheitsrechte and @article19, which the FSFE contributed to.

A new fee waiver could help some not-for-profit projects, and we welcome that. But it changes nothing about notarization, developer accounts, or entry thresholds. For #FreeSoftware, this is not the substantial shift the #DMA should deliver, and we have been highlighting this in our latest report.
