New open-source Android VNC server droidVNC-NG looking for contributions
The Android VNC server project droidVNC-NG just reached version 1.0.0 and is now looking for contributors to further improve the code and add features. It's a VNC server using contemporary Android 5+ APIs and therefore does not require root access. GPL-2, mostly authored by me and named droidVNC-NG in reverence to the original droidVNC server.

F-Droid: Android FOSS app store
This is the discussion on implementing a popcon-style feature in F-Droid if you want to read through where the project got to: https://gitlab.com/fdroid/fdroidclient/-/issues/396

First fully commercial, paid app requiring a key to function at all in main F-Droid repo! (Or is a free ad for the app?)
Meanwhile, the Latest tab "highlights good descriptions" (meaning in other words that it "hides" apps not meeting certain metadata criteria, even if they're completely free - as in speech and in beer - apps), which was not free of some irony, and was discussed at length with apparent consensus to change it but then every time it was back to square one. Because "Latest" apparently doesn't mean "Latest" and people don't get the nuances of English. Not kidding. Read the issue.

# of app downloads
Basically, not at present, I think. It's happened for some time, and for a longer time in the past, it's been discussed multiple times, but I don't think right now there's any effort in this direction.
