r/fossdroid Rules

Purpose of the Subreddit

The purpose of this subreddit is to promote, develop, and expand the ability of users to choose FOSS alternatives on Android. To meet this goal, the subreddit is primarily focused on compiling, suggesting, and requesting FOSS Android apps.

Anything that doesn't fit the purpose of this subreddit will be removed.

Don't be an asshole

That's it. That's the post. Don't be an asshole.

This includes bigotry such as racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, etc. You won't be banned for participating in negative subreddits, but if you bring it here you will be banned.

Source Code Licensing

When posting apps, please add the source license of the software you're posting (GPL, MIT, Apache, etc.). This should be at either the top or bottom of your post, or if you're posting multiple apps, please mention it with it.

Apps must be FOSS

Any posts or comments suggesting the use of non-FOSS (Free and Open Source Software) will be removed.

What is FOSS?

An exception will be made for high-effort discussions around AI and mapping topics, but direct links are still discouraged. This is due to the lack of well-made FOSS projects in both areas. Discussions should be centered around FOSS projects.

Must be English

All submissions must be in English. All content in other languages will be removed.

Google Play Links

Google Play links are only allowed in the spirit of making FOSS applications more accessible. You must include a link to a free method of distribution, such as F-Droid or GitHub, when providing Google Play links. Links to non-FOSS apps will be removed.

Spam

Links to suspicious websites may be removed as spam. For the purposes of this rule, this includes Telegram.

No VPNs

Any post asking for a VPN suggestion or shilling a VPN will be removed. Mullvad and ProtonVPN are good options. Do not use a free VPN. VPNs are not in scope for this subreddit and are frequently a target of bots.

No Memes

Please refrain from posting memes in this subreddit.

Low Effort Posts

Extremely low-effort posts may be removed, though low-effort questions may be answered by the removing mod at our discretion.

Don't use AI

When making posts, do not use AI tools to write the post or create images for it. Any images should be actual screenshots or otherwise meet general standards of appstores.
