Exciting news! Trackers being built into the Bitwarden F-Droid app for who knows how long have been removed

https://github.com/bitwarden/mobile/commit/f343a2cdbb5895fb518ed963b30c0d9822db2c74

Previously two trackers were introduced: Google Firebase and Microsoft AppCrashes

    That’s great news indeed!

    Now if they could consider implementing some sort of sorting and more advanced filtering that would be a huge plus, along with dupe control

    Just checked F-Droid and nothing popped up. Is it coming this way? Great if it does!

        Having a repo doesn’t mean its on F-droid. I mean it does but using there repo forfeits the F-droid protections

    How? For 2023.10.0 appmanager’s scanner does not show any of those, and it is usually very through (even right now it has identified 54 programming libraries)
