App Manager is now on the official F-Droid repo!

Link: https://f-droid.org/packages/io.github.muntashirakon.AppManager

If you're already using App Manager from IzzyOnDroid repo, you will still get updates from there (which will be faster than F-Droid).

Notice: F-Droid uses it's own signing config to sign an app. So, if you're migrating from IzzyOnDroid to F-Droid, be sure to take a backup of your blocking rules first as you will need to reinstall the app.

Briar is a messaging app designed for activists, journalists, and anyone else who needs a safe, easy and robust way to communicate.

Unlike traditional messaging apps, Briar doesn’t rely on a central server - messages are synchronized directly between the users’ devices.

If the internet’s down, Briar can sync via Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, keeping the information flowing in a crisis.

If the internet’s up, Briar can sync via the Tor network, protecting users and their relationships from surveillance.

Briar uses direct, encrypted connections between users to prevent surveillance and censorship.

Typical messaging software relies on central servers and exposes messages and relationships to surveillance.

Briar can share data via Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and the Internet.

Briar provides private messaging, public forums and blogs that are protected against the following surveillance and censorship threats:

Internet blackouts.
Metadata surveillance.
Content surveillance.
Content filtering.
Takedown orders.
Denial of service attacks.

SetEdit

SetEdit is a successor of 4A Settings Database Editor (also known as SetEdit) by 4A. SetEdit lets you view and edit certain Android settings which are useful for devices where these settings are hidden. It relies on a pre23 permission to edit some settings and therefore, it's target SDK is 22 despite being compiled with API 29. In newer Android versions, you may get a warning saying that the app may not work properly which you can safely ignore.

Old Photo Restoration (Official PyTorch Implementation)

FreeTube has been rewritten from scratch to provide a new and enhanced experience, including a built in extractor API to serve videos.

Hi Reddit!

I typically don't like self-advertising, but there's been enough public interest in this that I feel like it's worth making the announcement myself.

FreeTube is an open source desktop YouTube client (For Windows, Mac, and Linux) that is focused around watching YouTube in a more private manner compared to YouTube directly. It includes all major features you'd expect from YouTube like subscriptions, playlists, history, etc. All of this information is stored locally on your machine and not sent out to any third party servers.

Today's release is a year long rewrite of the application that includes much better stability among other things. One of the big major additions is a new local API extractor for obtaining data. You may know that we've used the Invidious API in the past. It's still an option, but we now have 2 methods of obtaining data, which really lets you tweak how private your experience is. We continue to use no official API from YouTube and can now optionally be entirely independent of Invidious or other external API services.

If you've used FreeTube in the past, you might be aware that there were quite a few issues with it. Parts of it weren't stable and bugs were fairly frequent. This should hopefully be changed now as we have a much better code base to work with. I highly recommend that you try it out again if you've tried it in the past. The feedback so far has been very positive.

You can take a look at the related blog post over here:
https://write.as/freetube/release-0-8-0-beta-the-rewrite-is-here

You can download the latest release here:
https://freetubeapp.io/#download

There's bound to be someone who is upset about this, so I'll just get this out of the way.

FreeTube is built using Electron. I'm not going to apologize on my use of it as we've had many internal discussions about this. At the end of the day, Electron is still my best tool for making sure that the app is compatible with all major operating systems. Using Electron also keeps the door open for a web version in the future. Switching away from Electron would remove all discussions about a web version or cross-platform support. I would be focusing on Linux support only and would be dropping half of my current user base. It's simply not a good option.

I'll be available to answer any questions you have, let me know what you think!

GHunt

GHunt is an OSINT tool to extract a lot of informations of someone's Google Account email.

👀 👉🏼 It can currently extract :

✅ Owner's name
✅ Last time the profile was edited
✅ Google ID
✅ If the account is an Hangouts Bot
✅ Activated Google services (Youtube, Photos, Maps, News360, Hangouts, etc.)
✅ Possible Youtube channel
✅ Possible other usernames
✅ Public photos
✅ Phones models
✅ Phones firmwares
✅ Installed softwares
✅ Google Maps reviews
✅ Possible physical location

⚠️ Warning:
02/10/2020: Since few days ago, Google return a 404 when we try to access someone's Google Photos public albums, we can only access it if we have a link of one of his albums.
Either this is a bug and this will be fixed, either it's a protection that we need to find how to bypass.
So, currently, the photos & metadata module will always return "No albums" even if there is one.

Magisk news: A new version of Magisk has been released.
===============================================

Magisk users: This is VERY DIFFERENT than previous versions, it's been re-written in many critical ways!

You are advised not to just install it blindly before thoroughly checking the documentation.

Among other things, it CANNOT BE INSTALLED FROM A 3RD-PARTY RECOVERY TOOL LIKE TWRP. Due to all the complex partitioning schemes on modern devices, they had to change this aspect.

If you choose to install this, I HIGHLY recommend backing up all your important data first, and READ THE DOCUMENTATION.

Free P2P VPN

People use a VPN — virtual private network — for a lot of reasons. However, for many people it is synonymous with hiding your network traffic, one thing that VPN can do. FreePN is a relatively new open source project that aims to build a free peer-to-peer VPN network. Like TOR, it is decentralized.

Right now, you can download for Ubuntu and Gentoo. There is a way to ask for early access for Debian, Fedora, and Arch. Windows, iOS, MacOS, and Android versions are promised for the future.
