That article was written with such blatantly bad faith language it had the opposite of the intended effect and made me start distrusting whatever Gab is (I had no idea before this thread)

> F-Droid won’t tolerate oppression or harassment against marginalized groups. Because of this, it won’t package nor distribute apps that promote any of these things

If this accurately describes Gab, I don't have sympathy for Yet Another Racist Community pretending that they're defending freeze peach.

Gab was created as a safe-haven for all the alt-right groups that get banned from Reddit.

It's entirely populated by people who were banned from Reddit, Twitter or Facebook for harassment or spreading hate.

Gab is a platform, ergo the judgement is about what the users publish on that platform. It's the exact same point Google seems to be making: that platform hosts content we wouldn't host, ergo the app must not be on our app store.
