While iteratively rewriting the app and incorporating constant feedback from our developer community, the new app turned out a bit different than the old one. Major changes call for a major version change and therefore, this will be F-Droid 2.0. Highlights of this release include:

• UI rewritten from scratch with Kotlin compose
• improved search, also searching in descriptions and translations
• easier to discover new apps, also highlighting the most downloaded ones
• installation approval before downloading
• multiple updates/downloads at the same time
• notifying user of issues with apps (e.g. signing key changed)
• optional Material You color theme
• improved filtering of lists

Look, I’m an android developer, and these are some major changes right there. Those guys are not playing around.

Rewriting the entire UI in jetpack compose is huge.

eye opening and interesting. Thanks.
