Android is now warning of Firefox sharing data

Isn't Vivaldi a chromium browser?

Probably GDPR if I had to guess. Seems like anything decent these companies do can be directly traced back to GDPR.
Edit: guys, "probably" means that I'm unsure.
No GDPR does not require google to display app permissions like that...
Your just making things up.

An alternative explanation is that the trolling style of your post is attracting downvotes.
A more succinct explanation is that they are just an asshole.

So Accrescent is more like the classic play store or Obtainium?
In the play store you're trusting Google and the developer.
I'm not sure how obtainium works. But if you download binaries from GitHub, you're trusting the developer to accurately build their source code into the binary without adding anything. You're also trusting GitHub implicitly -- way back when, source forge was sometimes adding malware to downloads iirc.
F-droid is kind of cool in that they are saying, "we will ensure for you that the code you execute is the same as the open source code you can read". But this added level of insurance comes with downsides -- like sometimes it's harder for the developer to make their code build properly, or maybe updates take longer.

I'm going to assume you're one of the downvoters and anyone else in this chain. I'm going to now auto-block. Bye.

That's indeed a natural conclusion about the kind of person who writes a post like that, but I didn't want to rule out other explanations such as drug consumption or stupidity.

And here I'm trusting Accrescent to actually deliver me an executable that has not been tampered with

Yes you are trusting them, and the developer. Just like you are trusting F-droid if you download from them. You also have to trust that the compiler program doesn't do anything fishy. It's trust all the way down.
The good news is that lots of people are working on making the systems trustworthy, and you as a consumer can learn to distinguish between what can be trusted for your usecase and what can't.

Do you have F-Droid installed? Not to pull a docker, but it is opening for me on 2 separate devices.
