            I don’t use Discord for security/privacy reasons, but none of these are listed on F-Droid

              They’re mods of the proprietary Discord client, so yeah they don’t meet the criteria. But the mods themselves are open source which is nice.

                Great info. I can understand modifying YouTube to remove ads, PnP, & screen-off usage for an entertainment app, but I don’t know I would tolerate that for messaging actual humans. It’s a shame these efforts aren’t going into self-hostable, decentralized options. :(

        Its not a fork it just injects some stuff into the app. And it uses a really old version as a base because they have a shortage of devs.
