This is great work!
The gallery app is already on fdroid
Here is the link: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.fossify.gallery/
On my end it's not showing on F-Droid, yet.
And their site doesn't show a thing because it's currently under construction
Use Obtanium and point it where you want

Thanks for the recommendation! Obtanium works like a charm.
Awesome. Go into settings and set the update check to what you want, 1 hour to Manual.
Fossify Repositories
Thank you!
I only see it from the IzzyOnDroid repo. Same with Fossify Calendar. Must be coming imminently
The new Calendar app is also on F-Droid now!
Edit: my bad, it's on Izzysoft, not F-Droid.
cand find it. Do you have a link?

Link to the app that works everywhere.Edit: got confused with the file manager.
That's the gallery
That's the gallery. I can't find the file manager in the official repo yet, but it is available in the izzysoft repo.
Thank you but URL returns a 404 error
That's like, almost 100% identical to the Simple File Manager from Tibor Kaputa, why make a new one?
Simple File Manager (and the other associated apps) got bought by a company, so this is a fork by a long-time maintainer that keeps it FOSS
Great !
So are they going to repackage those apps and sell on the playstore? What's the purpose of buying open source apps? Or it's just to limit open source competition?
I think it's all speculation so far, but I've heard the company is an analytics one, so it's likely to try to sell user data
Its not, its a fork of the simple mobile tools suite that just got bought by an advertising company. This new maintainer forked the codebase of all the apps and is maintaining the foss version from here on out so we're not stuck with ads and malware injected into the apps we use.
