        @domubpkm Fair enough.

        How can you trust that an app really won't send some company your location data, when you tell it not to? The only way you can trust a program not to do something it isn't supposed to do is if it is free software. ~ RMS

            @boogaloo Sorry, I don't know.

              I would be happy to comment on applications if there was an easy way to do so, however Github and Gitlab are incomprehensible labyrinths to me.

                @opolork They do already. Not sure if they're updated when the review was edited though.

                @cliffcoggin It's simple to create accounts in Github and Gitlab. You don't need to understand how it works for developers if you are not. This way, you can also help the developers for logging, confirming and investigating issues.

                  @cliffcoggin You can just leave a comment on the https://open-store.io app instead.

                    @kugiigi Under the 'Reviews' section, I see comments but no dates.

                      @opolork You must ALSO have a Github or Gitlab account to review an app on the OpenStore ! 😉

                        @domubpkm Hi. No, as I stated in my 1st post - you can log in via a GitHub/GitLab/Ubuntu One account. I went the Ubuntu One account route. 🙂

                          @opolork Right, you can also use an Ubuntu One account ! But we must have an account (Github or Gitlab or Ubuntu One as you said) which is the mandatory bridge to review an app.

                            @opolork Looks like it's not displayed in the site. It's there in the app. File an issue in gitlab :winking_face:

                                @kugiigi Thanks. I don't want to create a GitLab account.

                                  @kugiigi Yes, I can confirm this also - I see the comment dates on my OpenStore app (on a FP2) but not on https://open-store.io as you mentioned. 😕
