yes the QR code is broken. I was able to install the apk from github, although Identity creation failed on Android and I needed to import my desktop cert.

Hmm, you are right, there is something wrong with the QR. This does work, however:

• Install F-Droid on your phone.
• Open this in the phone web browser:

=> — https://skyjake.github.io/fdroid/repo/

• Tap on "Add to F-Droid".
• Tap on "I have F-Droid".

The repository is then added just fine.

Are github's apks the same builds as f-droid? I wouldn't want to do everything from scratch if installing from f-droid is resulting in a new app.

It's the same APKs. Here the F-Droid is just handling installing of updates when a new release is available.

Thanks skyjake! Will move to f-droid then, following instructions.

I manually generated a new QR code and put it here:

Unfortunately, I don't see a way to update/fix the Repomaker-generated one on skyjake.github.io...

Hello, can you recommend an Android client where I can set up a second identity, using my password for astrobotany? I'm not able to make this work..
