Theo,
Hmm, some of the apps in the F-droid catalogue are very old.
I wonder if that's a problem?
Most likely, yes. I sometimes see messages (from my OS) saying as much.
Do the apps say they are built for a recent Android?
Thats part of the "find an app" problem, they mostly don't. After
downloading I can inspect the apps manifest and see names like
"minSdkVersion" and "targetSdkVersion", but I have no idea how those map to
the different android phones and/or OS versions.
https://apilevels.com/translates from SDK version to Android version.
At least Droid-ify shows you a 'targets Android 15' or whatever when you
are browsing for apps. I think some other store apps do too (I can't see it
in Aurora though).
