Why advertise proprietary apps in a FOSS community? Especially when there are FOSS options available
Except this isn't a privacy community, this is a FOSS community, and OP mentioned they wanted an app on F-Droid, not anything about privacy.
I believe the idea that "FOSS is only about privacy and nothing else, therefore proprietary apps with no network access are the same as FOSS apps" is absurd and harmful to the free software community, so I downvoted you based on that. Privacy is important but free software is much more than just privacy.
