It's so the app still runs on ancient android versions. Use the Droid-ify client instead if you don't want that
Not exactly. It's possible to make an app run on older versions (select lower
minSdk
) and yet take advantage of newer features (select highertargetSdk
). This one can be easily be fixed by the F-Droid developers like almost all other developers have already.Droidify is amazing, I'd totally recommend that over the official F-Droid client any time. ๐
Does it have security vulnerabilities?
