F-Droid: how it weakens Android's security model

It's easily possible, and many people already do it. e.g. Quasseldroid is available via https://repo.kuschku.de/fdroid/repo/?fingerprint=A0CBC2C29E3... a custom repo generated from the same CI builds that also get pushed to Google Play.

Ah yes, but this requires adding one repo per app. I meant having a "single" (though selfhostable) Fdroid gateway to CI artifacts so i could just add "cidroid.org" repository to my Fdroid then choose for each application if i want it from F-droid repo or from fresher CIDroid.

It's pretty much the same as PPAs on Ubuntu.

For what you're asking for, IzzyDroid's repo may be the closest to what you're asking for.

Thanks i was not aware of this! It's almost exactly what i was looking for, although admittedly i wanted something more automated (along the lines of here's an RSS feed of releases, use this xpath query to extract the download URLs for various architectures).
