FDroid vs FDroid Basic (lemmy.ml)

I've using FDroid for some time now, but now it says "it was developed for an older Android version (I'm on 14) and can't update automatically" I read that FDroid Basic was recommended for newer phones, so I installed and copied my repos (still have both apps) but it doesn't recognize my installed apps. Am I missing something?

I agree ! I just pointed out the actual differences. And if you use LOS4uG, you have several options, keep F-Droid as it is, keep it and remove the privileged extension, remove it in favor of the basic version, and on top of the last option see if the unattended updates can be opted out/in.
