Calls and call for a meet up
This Week in F-Droid
TWIF curated on Thursday, 26 Dec 2024, Week 52

Will you be at the 38-th Chaos Communication Congress in Hamburg between 27–30 Dec 2024? If so, did you install the 38C3 Schedule and the c3nav Indoor navigation apps yet?
@thore proposed an F-Droid meetup at 38C3, so if you fancy a real human talk, add the FOSS Android App and F-Droid Community Meetup to your Day 2 TODO schedule!
Conversations and Quicksy were updated to 2.17.6+free polishing more of the UX about bubbles, avatars and reactions. While Audio and Video calls have been available since April 2020, recently the apps also got “Android calls integration” too. This makes an XMPP call behave like a normal phone call yielding useful features like: better Bluetooth integration and busy answer when you get called during an ongoing call. Not all Android versions support this, but newer ones do, so it all should be fine and dandy, right? Well, not quite. The integration was part of a larger code refactoring and the initial feedback was from plenty of devices, from many manufacturers, that… they stopped being able to call. Apparently this feature had a lot of bugs depending on the device and Android version, eg. tablets that advertised to have call integration or phones that did yet nothing worked. The developer started adding devices to an exception list with each new release making this an unwieldy endeavor. Latest version adds a toggle that allows users to just turn it off in case they’re unlucky and their device is one of the broken ones. Forks like Cheogram and monocles chat should follow suit soon.
Not all news is fun to type. We’ve been advertising the good work that the Divest project does, not only on the custom Android distro that helps old devices still be up-to-date but also about their apps in F-Droid. December marks 10 years of DivestOS, and this December will be the end of the project unfortunately. We wish Tavi all the best and thank them for all the work done during all this time!
Mull and Fennec we’re updated at the same time, so we hope there’s a way forward for Mull too and we’re tracking this in this issue. The rest of the apps might function by themselves or by having someone else host updated databases, we are tracking them in this issue.

IncludeOS: a minimal, resource efficient unikernel for cloud services
IncludeOS is an includable, minimal unikernel operating system for C++ services running in the cloud and on real HW. Starting a program with #include <os> will literally include a tiny operating system into your service during link-time. ↫ IncludeOS GitHub page IncludeOS isn’t exactly the only one of its kind, but I’ve always been slightly mystified by what, exactly, unikernels are for. The gist is, as far as I understand it, that if you build an application using a unikernel, it will find out at compile time exactly what it needs from the operating system to run, and then everything it needs from the operating system to run will be linked inside the resulting application. This can then be booted directly by a hypervisor. The advantages are clear: you don’t have to deal with an entire operating system just to run that one application or service you need to provide, and footprint is kept to a minimum because only the exact dependencies the application needs from the operating system are linked to it during compilation. The downsides are obvious too – you’re not running an operating system so it’s far less flexible, and if issues are found in the unikernel you’re going to have to recompile the application and the operating system bits inside of it just to fix it (at least, I think that’s the case – don’t quote me on it). IncludeOS is under heavy development, so take that under advisement if you intend to use it for something serious. The last full release dates back to 2019, but it’s still under development as indicated by the GitHub activity. I hope it’ll push out a new release soon.
