Which are your favourite foss apps that are yet to get Material you treatment ?
Best foss YT client no doubt, it plays every yt video with rare crashes, Libretube is best UI wise and have MU but it can't play every yt video, so it this app in MU will be bliss :) * Tasks.org apparently dev of this app tried to implement MU but i think he said, due to code languge it is not possible * Aegis/Authenticator Pro Both are best 2fa apps there is no doubt but i prefer Authenticator pro for it's more features and seamless backup...Dev. of aegis denied MU in issues page of his repo, Maybe Auth. Pro will have it :) There is Mauth with MU but still in Alpha so it's unusable * Bitwarden It is always a nice thing to see this app in MU :) best password manager (I know for 2fa app and password managers we don't supposed to look of UI but still) * Forkgram Besically all telegram clients lacks MU, there is workaround with TG monet (which i use) but you have to manually apply theme everytime so inbuilt monet will be great. Nonfoss apps like MDgram have monet theme (but this is foss sub) * VLC Just imagine how nice it would look if most widely used media player follows MU :), let's hope it will get it soon :)
- Forkgram app name is too long!

‘I will show you how safe Telegram is’
The fact that it locks you into using their servers, does not distribute on F-Droid (only Google Play OR an APK with an insecure update mechanism), and has a completely closed-source "abusive message filter" module server side, that could functionally be used for censorship, storing messages for future decryption, or any other number of nefarious purposes - we have no idea since it's not open source (https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server/blob/main/.gitmod...).
Additionally, you cannot distribute branded forks or Signal, and if you do fork it, your fork is not allowed to connect to Signal's "official" OWS (open whisper systems) servers - hostility to federation should be viewed with prejudice and suspicion at the very least, it suggests a vested interest in a single point of failure (or control), which goes against user interests.

"The Signal client is built non-reproducibly, so you actually don't know whether it's running the source code available on Github."
It’s actually the signal server that isn’t reproducible because of the abusive message filter that’s in a private repository. It’s clear as day here: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Server
