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..

Which one did you try? I use lagrange for android:

hey there @roughnecks -- Lagrange lets you use different identities for different sites

f-droid says the repository is not valid. I had tried it before searching for alternatives..

Anyone else having issues with the F-Droid repo? I've heard no reports of problems with it.
The APKs can be downloaded and installed manually, if necessary:
— https://github.com/skyjake/skyjake.github.io/tree/master/fdroid/repo
@skyjake, It seems the QR-code image on `https://skyjake.github.io/fdroid/repo/assets/qr_code.html` is broken.
🐦 roughnecks [OP] · Sep 22 at 08:09:
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:
— https://skyjake.github.io/fdroid/repo/
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.
🕹️ skyjake [...] · Sep 22 at 10:19:
It's the same APKs. Here the F-Droid is just handling installing of updates when a new release is available.
🐦 roughnecks [OP] · Sep 22 at 10:39:
Thanks skyjake! Will move to f-droid then, following instructions.

I manually generated a new QR code and put it here:
— skyjake.fi/lagrange/lagrange_android_qrcode.png
Unfortunately, I don't see a way to update/fix the Repomaker-generated one on skyjake.github.io...
