Fdroid better stay as FOSS and privacy focused. I don't want to see Spotify or some subscription brand bullshit up there.

FOSS does not mean "privacy focused". It means the software is free (as in freedom) and the source code is open and available for modification and redistribution and there are already several subscription-based services on there that I am happy to support.

I'm aware of what foss means, it's why I out an "and" after it given fdroid has a separate focus on privacy.

Subscribe to what you like I'd would prefer if fdroid remained as a pillar of security and openness and didn't welcome in a load corpo cunts.

Can I introduce you to F-Droid+? It’s only $9.99 for the first 3 months.
