The heck is going on with the Material 3?
Borders are nearly invisible. We are evolving but backwards.I know! Don’t get me started on the “adaptable” colour schemes that make any colour look beige… I was fine with the previous material design, TBH.
I usually use NeoStore, but I dont love it either so I guess I will give f-droid a try again.
Hope they also rethink some of the ux after this. Some of the decisions, like hiding search inside “latest” tab were not great.
Absolutely!! Who came up with that idea. It should be a top level button not placed in ANY tab. And “latest”? That sounds like “featured apps that you might like if you are not looking for something specific”. Why would I go there if I “am looking for something specific”.
Absolutely mindboggling design…
I just found this:

Nice, switched immediately
Yeah, this seems great.
Man I’ve been using Droidify for a long time 😅
It is still better. And as far as I know, more secure.
What is?
This is a much needed update. While I like the functionality of F-Droid, the UI is unappealing.
Agreed, this is great news!
What’s so different between 1.22 and 1.23 though? I just updated my client to 1.23 because of this post and I see very little difference.
There is in-app changelog (URL link?), I am assuming this update is not related to the new design.
SMH, the screenshots shown in the blog post look exactly as my F-droid install (only light mode).
