I've just tried it. The UX is great and the downloads are faster than ever. It's soo much better noww!

WTF, why is the download on the Fdroid front page still giving me 1.3.2?

Could be a gradual rollout.

Edit: saw it's actually still a beta (and probably this is why it doesn't show), here's a link for the APK: https://f-droid.org/...

UX is much better. I wouldn't say it's great. At all.

But I'm really happy to see big improvements! And I'm finding things I had no idea were on the "store" before at all. Which ultimately is the goal.
