Due to "anti-features" introduced unilaterally by some people from FDroid community, it is not possible to find Organic Maps using the search in FDroid client without tinkering with its settings first: gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroiddata/-

By default, it is possible to find apps with ads, with tracking, with non-free network services, dependencies and assets, apps without source code and with known vulnerabilities. But it is not possible to find Organic Maps, an open-source app without ads and tracking.

@organicmaps
They don't even explain what the "other" mean. I read both blog posts, the GitLab issue, and the list of 48 affected apps, and no where they explain this !!!

@fdroidorg you really need to up your game be crystal clear about such moves and terminologies.
You want a feedback? Here you go: Roll back to previous state. As a client, this is nasty and vague, and I'm genuinely thinking of stopping my donation and supporting F-Droid if I cannot comprehend your bizarre actions and terms.

@Mehrad @organicmaps honestly @fdroidorg support seems to be a ridiculous burden on devs. Most of their policies sound like a good idea at first, but have silly consequences. Like forcing API keys to be stored in source code ;)
