Limitless_screaming ( @Limitless_screaming@kbin.social ) 14•6 months agoThere is a collection of open source apps that aim to just do their job with no fancy additions, they were called “Simple mobile tools”. They are no longer maintained, this is a fork of them.
calm.like.a.bomb ( @clmbmb@lemmy.dbzer0.com ) 6•6 months agoThey are (hopefully) maintained by the company that bought them. And yes, this is the fork.
Björn Tantau ( @bjoern_tantau@swg-empire.de ) 8•6 months agoConsidering what the company does with other apps it buys we actually hope that they don’t maintain their apps.
DeltaTangoLima ( @DeltaTangoLima@reddrefuge.com ) English1•6 months agoOh, they’ll be “maintained” alright. Just at what cost to the user is what needs to be determined.
lapislazuli ( @lapislazuli@sopuli.xyz ) 9•6 months agoNot affiliated with them in any way but want to say this: support them, if you can. The amount of support, or lack thereof, could make or break this fork.
Poggervania ( @Poggervania@kbin.social ) 6•6 months agoGreat! So what is it?
Limitless_screaming ( @Limitless_screaming@kbin.social ) 8•6 months agoSimple tools for mobile; gallery, calendar, file manager, etc. A fork of the unmaintained Simple mobile tools.

DeltaTangoLima ( @DeltaTangoLima@reddrefuge.com ) English1•6 months agoNice! The settings export/import from the SMT version to the new Fossify version works perfectly, plus we get a nice green icon, to easily tell them apart. So happy they’re forking these apps.
