Molly is wonderful but I use signal-foss because it shares openstreetmap location by default ๐คฉ
Molly claims to use OSM in their FOSS builds: https://github.com/mollyim/mollyim-android/blob/main/README.md#dependency-comparison. I can't confirm this because I never use any Signal features that require map integration.
Wow, this is news for me. I've been following this issue on the git but there's no news about this there at least.

Have you tried out Molly? If yes, did you use the normal version or the FOSS build? Btw the Version available on Accrescent is also FOSS
Nah, I get hypomania from buproprin. I think ecstacy would put me straight into serotonin syndrome.
I like the direction this is going
fkn same
I have used it (molly-foss)but haven't in a while, just waiting for it to enable OSM location sharing to switch back to it. Didn't know about accrescent. What's the deal about it compared to droidify or f-droid?
It's more secure than F-Droid. It's still in a pretty early stage of development though and currently only offers a handful of apps.
Cool.thanks!
I have to be misunderstanding what you're saying because it sounds like you're happy that app shares your location by default? Or do you mean it uses that format by default when you decide to share a location?
I meant that it uses the OSM "format" when I decide to share it voluntarily. That totally makes sense for me. I don't want to be sharing no Google links.
