[-] sudo_tee@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago

does this means what I think it means ?

[-] true_espionage@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah baby!

[-] ConditionOverload@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Man I've been checking the Play Store every single day to see if it's available to download! I'm so excited!

[-] AstralWeekends@lemm.ee 10 points 1 year ago

Exciting to see!

[-] toolCHAINZ@infosec.pub 9 points 1 year ago

Just want to say how good it felt to open up sync again and see my cat photos! You're a hero, LJ!

[-] Vlixz@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Feels just like home >⁠.⁠<

[-] WeirdAlex03@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 year ago

I see a lot of issues there already, is it available for download now? I haven't gotten the email yet and I don't see it on the Play Store

[-] Lord_Logjam@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

It's an alpha release with only 100 testers at this stage.

And I wasn't invited? :(

[-] ljdawson@lemmy.world 53 points 1 year ago

Sorry only 100 internal testers until Google fully approve. Gives me chance to fix some of the issues raised though!

[-] can@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 year ago

No worries! I'm just thrilled to see it's coming along nicely. I'm not going anywhere.

[-] fuzzzerd@kbin.social 4 points 1 year ago

After Google approval, what is the size of the tester pool?

[-] debeluhar@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

There is only a limit of 100 testers in internal testing. Other channels (Closed testing, open testing and production) doesn't have any limit at all, but every update of app needs Google approval, which can take some time. Also, Google needs to approve post of the app (title, description, icons, etc...) even without uploading an app which can also take some time. Source: I'm developer (not of this app of course)

[-] fuzzzerd@kbin.social 3 points 1 year ago

Had the same thought. Glad it's not just me.

[-] forksandspoons@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

I guess its just a limited release rn for beta testers or something like that ?

[-] GingeyBook@lemmy.world 15 points 1 year ago

Let me innnnn

[-] eco@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

From Discord:

Tomorrow is the google play signup form for everyone else (pending google approving it)

[-] big_slap@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

oh hell yeah

[-] GingeyBook@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Discord link? I can't seem to find it anywhere

[-] cory_lowry@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

At the moment, yes

[-] itadakimasu@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Ahhhhh man I was traveling today and missed the sign up. The horrorrrrrrrrrrrr.

So excited

[-] OtakuAltair@lemm.ee 5 points 1 year ago

Oh my god, okay it's happening. Everybody stay calm!

[-] atake@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Nice!

[-] approxamatrix@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Nice !

[-] dreyln@programming.dev 3 points 1 year ago

Will it be released to F-Droid at the same time as the Google Play store?

[-] somedaysoon@lemmy.world 12 points 1 year ago

Sync is not open source and Fdroid only allows open source.

[-] cheerjoy@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

The main repo is open source only, but there are others

[-] somedaysoon@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Adding other repos that have nothing to do with f-droid has nothing to do with f-droid... calling 3rd party repos f-droid just because you are able to add them to their app is disingenuous and shows a lack of understanding of what f-droid actually is.

F-Droid is an installable catalogue of FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) applications for the Android platform.

That is the first sentence on their official site.

Has LJ said it'll run without Google Play? I certainly hope so.
