OneDeploy launches hosting service for managed open-source apps with backups, TLS

A new service called OneDeploy lets users deploy open-source applications on dedicated virtual servers that come with a web address, TLS certificate, admin account, and scheduled backups. Billing is hourly against a prepaid credit balance with a monthly price cap, and users can add custom domains, resize or migrate servers between regions or clouds, and restore encrypted off-site backups for about two weeks after funds run out. Pricing is per-server rather than per-user, and only open-source editions of apps are installed, with paid editions sold separately by their makers.

F-Droid releases version 2.0, its biggest Android app update in a decade

F-Droid has launched version 2.0 of its official app after more than a year of development and 14 test releases. The update rebuilds the interface using Kotlin Compose and Material Design, reorganizing navigation into three sections—Discover, Search, and My Apps—to improve app browsing, search, and update management. The rollout to users will happen gradually over the coming weeks.
