This is also true for DivestOS as a whole.

Thanks for the heads up, now trying IronFox though it's not on Fdroid only found it in GitLab

[–] mac@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Fennec/IronFox both havent released new builds BTW

You may want to look into obtainium to fetch updates from gitlab, if you havent already set that up

That's what I've done 👍 update just had an update via Obtainium 08/01

[–] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What URL do you put in Obtanium?

I found what I think is the source for the fennec patches to the Firefox source code, but there's no releases page. F-Droid still has v133. Where are you finding more recently updated releases?

[–] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Ah, for some reason I assumed you meant Fennec in your original comment. I see now that person you replied to mentioned both.

[–] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

What is the Fennec URL? I've been searching for 5 minutes with both DDG and Google and can't find it. "Fennec" is a really overloaded word. All I can find is the F-Droid page, not the source. I wanted to try Obtanium for the first time.

[–] Fitik@fedia.io 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe this is what you're looking for? It's linked to the F-Droid

https://gitlab.com/relan/fennecbuild/

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

That does appear to be the source, but Obtanium needs a Releases page, as far as I can tell, ~~and people only seem to talk about it in relation to github.~~

I found a YouTube video that says it can install from all sorts of places. I'm going to watch it to get the gist of it.

IronFox needs working on...

Just tried to open a link that I found in Google https://community.gopro.com/s/article/HERO13-Black-Pairing-Issue-With-The-Remote?language=fr

Opens an blank page, this link works fine in Mull

[–] mac@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Huh, that's odd. Opens fine for me in IronFox

I just went back to take a screenshot and it decided to break lol

[–] limerod@reddthat.com 1 points 1 year ago

Loads fine on Fennec fdroid. It even translated the page from French to English. Consider reporting this bug to ironfox folks.

[–] hexagonwin@lemmy.sdf.org 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

unfortunate, but i haven't yet found a viable alternative.. though tbh i just noticed before i wasn't even running the latest mull build, so lol.

[–] Qkall@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

i saw someone mention fennec in another thread. it's on fdroid and updated a few weeks ago... seems to be wokring okay... but ... like an hour in.

[–] GlenRambo@jlai.lu 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I thought only one (main) dev was leaving. But that mull and divest woild still be updated?

[–] Neon@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Tht one dev is the only dev. They're dead.
