Congratulation to this milestone!
Do you consider to distribute it via [https://f-droid.org](https://f-droid.org)?
You would fit into this alternative software repository since it comprises only free, open source software.

Thanks all. Particular thanks for posting how precisely we can get to this setting; took a while to find it!
I’ve set it to Category & Latest, but when I click on the logo in the top left I still see just the list of latest posts. I had expected that clicking the logo would bring me to “home page”. I’m very new to Discourse, I’m not even sure I’m leaving this feedback in the right place.
Thanks again all, love your work!
