I've come to realize that a lot of foss android apps are pretty outdated and usually abandoned. Is that even safe to use? Like even the fdroid archive repository, are those safe to use? I'm still rather new to the foss world, but in my mind it seems a very outdated app is probably not safe or am I missing something here?

For those kind of apps I'd love to see like a heartbeat commit. Everything's fine. 2020 nothing to change. All's working well. Just code smell
