  1. Rob, you say that Session is 100% open source, but why does F-droid mention as anti-feature that "The upstream source code is not entirely Free"?

  2.  @keejefferys2372  This explanation should be added to the description of Session on F-droid.

  3.  @robbraxmantech  Maybe a mistake in F-droid. If so, it's a pity, as it can put people off on a wrong assumption.

  4. Actually in F-droid docs "This does not mean that proprietary software is included in the app. Most likely, the F-Droid build has been patched in some way to remove the Non-Free code/libraries, and/or some functionality may be missing." But the interface doesn't make this very obvious.

  5.  @keejefferys2372  This makes more sense. Thank you.

  6. It depends on whether you can unlock the bootloader or not. As far as I know Galaxies are unlockabl in their international versions, but not in their US versions, or at least the option is obfuscated (I have read things like it appearing only a week after the dev options are opened or smthng like that; Idk I'm not in the US). After that you need to find a ROM compatible with your device model. Some Galaxies have them others don't. I'm still looking for one for my A31, although very close models like A32 have them.
