@lily @fdroidorg Is there something in particular that you will miss?
@fdroidorg are you gonna rewrite the whole UI with jetpack compose? or just parts
@micr0
For now only parts, but eventually it may cover everything.
@fdroidorg
@fdroidorg Is 3G still working??
@rishav_sharma_001
There's still an operational 3G network here in NL (2 networks for 2G too).
But these screenshots were taken with the UI in demo mode, apparently that still shows 3G.
@fdroidorg
@kainisenni @fdroidorg okay thanks for giving the details 
@fdroidorg I discovered the "F-Droid Basic" app recently, is that still going to be supported/worked on?
@pkal
Yes, this will receive the same face lift.
@fdroidorg
@grote @fdroidorg Do you know if there are any plans to slim it down any further (e.g. dropping "Categories").
@pkal There's a secret plan, but whether it gets executed depends on @NGIZero @fdroidorg
@fdroidorg
I don't get it, what's changing?
@ditol @fdroidorg Navigation bar at the bottom uses Material Design 3
@delopa
Oh, thanks! I seem to hate Material 3.
@fdroidorg
@ditol @fdroidorg Look at the bottom bar, for example. The icons are highlighted by a coloured pill in the screenshots. Currently only the text and icon colour changes. The Material 3 toggles in the settings are also very distinct and much bigger. And the search button on the first screenshot is a squircle instead of a circle.
If you look up the differences between Material 2 and 3 you'll notice the differences. Material 3 theoretically also supports Material You (sometimes also called Monet), which colours UI elements depending on your wallpaper and system theme. Idk if F-Droid will support that though.
@fdroidorg True black remains?
from my experience, some apps that transitioned from the old material design to material design 3 have become a bit laggy on my old tablet (the most notable example of that K-9 mail; went from smooth to really laggy...)
Aside from performance, material design 3 looks ok... but i like the older one much more
If it was like how the Material Files app does it (a toggle in settings for using the new or the old one), then I'm perfectly fine with it 
@fdroidorg Finally.. 
@fdroidorg
Still no Refresh-Button?
@oausi Latest F-Droid should update faster and more consistent. You need a refresh button on a special device, eg. TV?
@fdroidorg
No, I still know a lot of people who can't remember or probably won't learn the swipe-down gesture in Android.
@oausi It's the default refresh gesture on both mobile OSes for decades. That aside, they should not need that, setup autoupdates and carry on. Unattended operations on Android 12 or later are available for more than a year now.
@fdroidorg
There are still phones and ROMs that kill background apps without notification so that it is sometimes necessary to manually update the repos.
Let it be decades, I still know a lot of people who don't know this gesture.
But i said that earlier without success. We can stop this here.
@fdroidorg Looks beautiful, great work to all involved. Can’t wait to try the new redsign 
@fdroidorg looks great! 
@fdroidorg Nice! 
I'm looking forward to one more application on my De-Googled @GrapheneOS phone to join the cohesive look :)
@fdroidorg I think the search button doesn't stand out much in dark mode. The first time I used this app, I had some trouble finding it.
@fdroidorg How to restore the old UI?
