I am a TalkBack screen reader user and I'm downloading your app to test it with accessibility services right now.

I been keeping it updated via obtainium. It's faster to get updates that way.
Yeah. F-Droid has some considerable lag in deploying new versions. I’m new to F-Droid but a 3-6 day delay in publishing new versions seems typical.
F-Droid's big "thing" is reproducible builds. You could theoretically post any artifact to GitHub, so I have to trust that every update the artifact you built matches the source code. F-Droid allows me to know that the artifact matches the source code.
Unless of course you've implemented your own reproducible build system.
The caveat here is it means F-Droid has to build your app, which can take some time (but they're actively working on improving that)
Yeah. Sorry I should have phrased my comment better. I’m not saying that’s a bad thing, but people should understand that the tradeoff of reproducible builds is a slight lag in updates.
Thanks! Apologies for the accessibility issues, but I’ll start working through your list!
