minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink4•5 months agohuh? fdroid has been doing this for me all along, is it just because i have the privileged extension?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink7•edit-25 months agoYes, but as the name says, privilege extension requires privileged access to the system, hence granting fdroid (much) more trust. In recent android versions, background update is no longer a privileged permission, hence can be performed without privilege extension.
