@kensanata @Maltimore
OsmAnd definitely has synthesized and recorded voice output.
Also the full version is available on #fdroid. We also have a maps.me fork called #maps without all the trackers ;-).

First #Fennec icon concept submitted! https://forum.f-droid.org/t/new-icon-for-fennec-f-droid/2810/3
Siph :siphonayhappy:
@MightyPork @fdroidorg it's a Firefox modified to be as free as possible so it complies with f-droid's guidelines, like Debian did with Iceweasel until some time ago

Just realized we didn't direct people anywhere for the fennec icon. Forum thread for submissions and discussions here: https://forum.f-droid.org/t/new-icon-for-fennec-f-droid/2810

I love the @fdroidorg app store for Android. In my mind screenshots add a lot of value to the listings.
That’s why today I’m going to submit PRs to a couple of app repos to add screenshots.
The PRs for #AndStatus and #OpenVegeMap are already sent:
https://github.com/andstatus/andstatus/pull/487
https://github.com/Rudloff/openvegemap-cordova/pull/9

"Fennec F-Droid, which is F-Droid’s unbranded Firefox build, updated to v60, finally bringing all Firefox quantum improvements to android.
By the way, several people told us they find the icon ugly. Think you can do better? Here’s your chance! Send us a new design, and we might make it the official new Fennec F-Droid icon!" according to the latest TWiF @fdroidorg

@cwcopa depending on where you live one or the other might be easier for you to do. We prefer € as then we don't have to convert anything.

Also please help!
Liberapay
📈 This week €2366 and $453 of donations have been transferred from 1489 patrons to 453 creators and projects. https://liberapay.com/about/stats
F-Droid
We've now enabled accepting US$ donations on #liberapay. Still unsure how exactly this will work out in practice but we'll figure it out as we go. :-)
F-Droid
@Liberapay Okay, let's try this! :)
F-Droid
@Liberapay What would enabling $'s in our liberapay team mean? Will it just show up as a separate balance if someone donates in $ then? And every member is responsible for converting when withdrawing?
F-Droid
@Aznorth I don't know the status of the VLC builds, sorry. Please ask here: https://forum.f-droid.org/t/where-is-the-vlc-app/108
F-Droid
@Tusky @kurisu We've been better lately though, almost putting out updates daily! (from >weekly which we had in December)
F-Droid
Or you can just mention @fdroidorg here in a public toot if you don't want to make a forum account just for this. :-)
F-Droid
We now set up a forum thread for submitting interesting things to mention in this weeks #TWIF: https://forum.f-droid.org/t/twif-submission-thread/2752
lease jump in there if you want anything to be mentioned. Your favourite app got an update this week? Please tell us!
