The Medito app is a (unsurprisingly) meditation/mindfulness app. Sort of the free software alternative to Headspace.
I haven’t used it in a long time and was curious to see how it was doing, but I saw this:

  • it’s only available on IzzyOnDroid now, I believe it used to be on F-droid at some point (edit: it wasn’t)
  • the available release is 2 years old

So I thought, maybe the app was sadly just archived, but no, it’s actually still under development, it’s just that no releases have been published on GitHub for 2 years (2.0.48 clearly titled “Deprecated”), instead the Play Store releases keep being pushed out as recently as 3 February 2025 (3.2.0).
Oh and the issues tab has been disabled, which seems very shady to me.
So I wonder what the heck went down with this excellent app, it may still be considered “free software”, also featuring the best licence (AGPL), but it looks like it has become unfriendly towards the community, I wonder why

    We are a small team and are not looking for people who can contribute to the project

    This bogus argument is always big no no for me, clearly if they’d just been a small team they would not only accept, but enjoy whatever kind of contribution they can get from external people.
    They just don’t want to deal with the community and do whatever they want, I’m guessing.

    they don’t want our help, their loss

    Spot on!

    Glad to know I wasn’t alone on this, it is a shame really
