FriendBesto from the future here. Dev, decided to call it quits. He thought it was time to move on with his life. No discord, it was just time. He will continue to support a few selected projects.

This post is just for people even more in the future who may wonder what happened. and want to look it up.

Yes, all of DivestOS development has stopped due to lack of a maintainer.

Hypatia was the only malware scanner I ever used on android. I have no trust of the playstore ones. Is there anything out there similar? It is a bit shame that I haven't even heard of DivestOS before... just now that their software stopped working.

It should be forked under a new name soon enough

For example, Mull is also by Divested Computing Group and this should be the new project for it
