This feels weird to say because it should be obvious: Don’t download random #Conversations_im forks from the PlayStore!
I don’t know why people install apps with no website or source code. If you’re reading this, you’re likely not one of them—but server stats show they exist.
Yesterday, I warned one such fork about massive security issues and asked them to take it down. They refused.
Good news and bad news. #Conversations_im 2.17.0 has support for emoji reactions 🎉 Since @Codeberg appears to be under constant DDoS attacks they have added pretty strict rate limits that the @fdroidorg build server keeps running into. 😞 Another build cycle just failed and it's unclear when 2.17.0 will be available on F-Droid. Maybe Codeberg and F-Droid can back channel an allow list or something? 🙏
